Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
About our shower tray repair in Orphir
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. Common call-outs are for movement when you stand on it and scuffs and light scratches, on acrylic, stone resin and enamelled steel.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Do you need shower tray repair in Orphir?
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Chips caused during fitting
- Chipped corners or rims
- Cracks running from the waste
- Scuffs and light scratches
What your quote should include
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Who will actually do the work
- What prep work is covered
How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that and costs far less. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Why book with us
- Most jobs done in one visit
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Colour mixed on the day to match

How the visit works
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Orphir, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Advice
Other services in Orphir
Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Orphir use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A photo taken from further back
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Questions from Orphir
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
How long before I can shower?
Normally by the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Do you work in Orphir?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Orphir for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
