How we handle shower tray repair in Portnahaven
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. We work on cast iron, acrylic and enamelled steel, and the jobs we see most are scuffs and light scratches and staining and dullness across the tray.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

FAQs for Portnahaven
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. There are no surprise 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.
What you get with us
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- One price list for the entire UK
- Colour mixed on the day to match

Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Check the seal every few months
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Portnahaven, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
What we are called out for in Portnahaven
Cracks frequently start at the waste, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.
Clients usually contact us about:
- Chips caused during fitting
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- A crack across the base
Questions to ask before booking
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Aftercare advice
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether the price covers travel
What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
