Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
Covering Preston
Preston is about 13 miles west of Berwick-upon-Tweed, in the Scottish Borders. Whether you’re in the middle of Preston or on the outskirts, we offer exactly the same service: fixed prices, tidy work and a one-year guarantee. Preston is one of 89 places in the Scottish Borders we cover. We work right across the region, from Preston to Edinburgh (35 miles away).
All of TD11 is within our area, from the main roads to the quietest streets. We also cover the places around Preston: Duns (2 miles south), Clockmill (3 miles south-west), Gavinton (3 miles south-west), Chirnside (5 miles east) and Grantshouse (5 miles north).
Local landmarks in Preston
Locally, our jobs take us to homes close to Preston Church, among other places. A little further out are Knoll Hospital (2.5 miles south) and Cockburn Tower (1.7 miles north-west). Open spaces near Preston include Duns Castle nature reserve and Duns Law.
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Honest limits
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on

Do you need shower tray repair in Preston?
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Cracks running from the waste
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Damage from a refit or building work

The process
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, generally until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access

Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
