Shower Tray Repair for Walkerburn homes
Shower tray chip, crack and scratch repairs and resurfacing in Walkerburn, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- A cracked shower tray
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, usually until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
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 to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

How we handle shower tray repair in Walkerburn
A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. Whether it’s edge chips from dropped bottles and a cracked shower tray, we can help, whatever the material.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Walkerburn: your questions answered
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced without removing it.
Do you cover the whole of the Scottish Borders?
We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Walkerburn.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Normally, as long as it does not flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Repair or replace in Walkerburn?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why book with us
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- One visit for most repairs
- A fixed quote before booking
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
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.
Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Walkerburn use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Walkerburn. What changes the price is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your EH43 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
What we cannot put right
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
