Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Shower tray repair in Scottish Borders, done in place
A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We are often asked to fix a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and chips or cracks by the plughole, across ceramic, cast iron and acrylic.
In a village like Scottish Borders, many shower trays are in cottages and barn conversions, where floors may be timber. We check the tray is solid before repairing a crack.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

How the visit works
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and the room is left clean and tidy. Somewhere like Scottish Borders needs a little journey planning: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives or where to park. We bring everything needed for the shower tray repair, so there is no second trip.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- 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 tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Your questions about shower tray repair in Scottish Borders
Do you come out to small places like Scottish Borders?
Yes, we do: Scottish Borders is covered like any town. Just mention any tricky access.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
When can I use the shower again?
Normally by the following day. We’ll confirm before we leave.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What affects the price in Scottish Borders
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Repairing versus replacing in Scottish Borders
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. In an older home in a village like Scottish Borders, replacing a shower tray can be harder than it sounds: original pieces may not match modern sizes, and access can be awkward. A repair keeps the original.
Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
