Shower Tray Repair in Town Yetholm
Shower tray chip, crack and scratch repairs and resurfacing in Town Yetholm, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Chipped corners or rims
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
How we handle shower tray repair in Town Yetholm
We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles aren’t disturbed. Common call-outs are for a dull, stained or worn surface and scuffs and light scratches, in cast iron, enamelled steel and acrylic.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Town Yetholm: your questions answered
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Do you come to Town Yetholm?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Town Yetholm. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
When we’d advise against a repair
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, usually until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.
Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Repairing versus replacing in Town Yetholm
The tray is normally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
