Your questions about shower tray repair in Scotstoun
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you work in Scotstoun?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Scotstoun from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Do you cover the entire of Glasgow?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Scotstoun. Our prices are the same everywhere.
About our shower tray repair in Scotstoun
The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll explain what we find. We regularly repair acrylic, cast iron and enamelled steel, and common reasons people contact us are a crack across the base and scuffs and light scratches.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Scotstoun
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- A tray broken in more than one place
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we work on in Scotstoun
- Acrylic
- Enamelled steel
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Rinse away soap after showering
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
- A photo taken from further back
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can price the job.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How it works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, tidy-up included.
- We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, generally by the following day, you can use the shower.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Ensure the area is dry
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
