About our shower tray repair in West End
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. We match the colour and finish. Typical jobs include a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and scratches in the surface, on ceramic, acrylic and enamelled steel.

What affects the price in West End
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
When to call us in West End
Cracks frequently start at the waste, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Chips on the edges
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Movement when you stand on it
What your quote should include
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How soon you can use it again
- How changes to the job are handled
- What prep work is covered
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in West End as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Store bottles off the tray
- Report any creaking or movement early
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.
West End questions
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Only if you are sure it is not leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
Do you work in West End?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to West End and the rest of Edinburgh. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
Repair or replace: which is better?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
