About our shower tray repair in Reiss
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll explain what we find. Common call-outs are for damage from a refit or building work and a tray that flexes, on acrylic, cast iron and stone resin.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Reiss and across Highland.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

What else we do in Reiss
Reiss: your questions answered
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
Are there extra charges for Reiss?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
- Cast iron
What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- Natural light rather than flash
If you are in Reiss and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Do you need shower tray repair in Reiss?
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Chips on the edges
Questions to ask before booking
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What happens if they find more damage
- How to look after the finish
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
Should you replace it?
A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that and costs far less. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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.
