How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Tain. What changes the price is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Repairing versus replacing in Tain
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Tain. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
What you get with us
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- No need to remove anything
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Honest advice, even when it means no job

Tain questions
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
How much does shower tray repair cost in Tain?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced without removing it.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
What a repair cannot fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Related advice
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
