Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Shower tray repair in Port Ellen without replacing anything
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. If you are dealing with scratches from cleaning or grit and a tray that flexes, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Port Ellen. The price reflects:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- The material
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
What you get with us
- Colour-matched on site
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Everything repaired in place
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
