Trusted shower tray repair in Scottish Borders

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Shower tray repair in Scottish Borders without replacing anything

A worn or stained tray can be resurfaced, for a clean, uniform finish without removing the screen or tiles. We regularly repair stone resin, ceramic and enamelled steel, and people most frequently call us about snagging damage in a new bathroom and a cracked shower tray.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

Landlord and trade work in Scottish Borders

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Repairing versus replacing in Scottish Borders

A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

How to look after the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

When we would advise against a repair

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray broken in more than one place

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

  • Stone resin
  • Enamelled steel
  • Cast iron
  • Ceramic
  • Acrylic

FAQs for Scottish Borders

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

The process

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
