We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Do you need shower tray repair in Torbeg?
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks usually point to an uneven base.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Chips on the edges
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Scuffs and light scratches
What your quote should include
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What happens if they find more damage
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How your room will be protected
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Use the extractor fan
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.
The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, usually by the following day, you can use the shower.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Open a window if you can
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
Your questions about shower tray repair in Torbeg
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across North Ayrshire.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new shower tray typically means removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

What your shower tray is made of matters
