Shower tray repair in Robroyston without replacing anything
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack does not come back. If you’re dealing with scratches from cleaning or grit and chips or cracks by the plughole, we can typically 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.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Use the extractor fan
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
FAQs for Robroyston
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is a repair better than a new one?

Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you quote from pictures?
Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
