Shower tray repair at your home in Plean
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack does not come back. Our technicians work on cast iron, ceramic and stone resin, and common reasons people contact us are damage around the waste and chipped corners or rims.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

How it works
You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Plean as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Plean: your questions answered
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Generally, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
When we would advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Leaking waste fittings
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A photo taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your FK7 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Why repair rather than replace?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
