About our shower tray repair in Warriston
We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We’re often asked to fix damage around the waste and snagging damage in a new bathroom, across stone resin, ceramic and acrylic.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
What we’re called out for in Warriston
Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Scratches in the surface
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- A crack across the base
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Who turns up on the day
- How your room will be protected
Landlords, agents and businesses in Warriston
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Edinburgh and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, tidy-up included.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, normally until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Getting a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What affects the price in Warriston
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Warriston. What changes the price is:
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send photos for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Repairing versus replacing in Warriston
A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that, at a fraction of the cost. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Warriston. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why us?
- No need to remove anything
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Same prices wherever you are
- A year’s guarantee on all work

Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Use the extractor fan
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
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.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
