Shower tray repair in Waterside, done in place
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles aren’t disturbed. We work on enamelled steel, acrylic and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are snagging damage in a new bathroom and scuffs and light scratches.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

How it works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, generally by the next day, you can use the shower.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the area is dry
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Open a window if you can

FAQs for Waterside
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
What areas do you cover?
All of South Ayrshire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, 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 repairs are matched to the gel coat.
What we can’t put right
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Leaking waste fittings
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- A tray that moves underfoot
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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.
What we are called out for in Waterside

- Damage from a refit or building work
- Cracks running from the waste
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Waterside. The price comes down to:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Check the seal every few months
- Use the extractor fan
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
