How we handle shower tray repair in Portlethen
We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll explain what we find. We regularly repair acrylic, enamelled steel and ceramic, and people most frequently call us about scuffs and light scratches and a damaged area around the waste.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Portlethen. The price comes down to:
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
- A photo taken from further back
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

What we’re called out for in Portlethen
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
Look out for these signs:
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Damage from a refit or building work
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- A dull, stained or worn surface
Before you book anyone
- Aftercare advice
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Rinse away soap after showering
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
Questions from Portlethen
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Usually, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the entire UK, including Portlethen and the rest of Aberdeen. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
How it works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, generally by the day after, you can use the shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
