- Repairs from £95
- Chips caused during fitting

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
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.
Shower tray repair in St Andrews without replacing anything
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. We work on acrylic, cast iron and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are chipped corners or rims and chips caused during fitting.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
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.
How the visit works
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Common problems we fix in St Andrews
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
The things customers generally mention when they call are:
- Chipped corners or rims
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Cracks running from the waste
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

Landlord and trade work in St Andrews
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
What we cannot put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Trays cracked in several places
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
- Cast iron

Repairing versus replacing in St Andrews
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good.
