Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
How we handle shower tray repair in Whauphill
If the whole tray looks tired, we can resurface it, for a clean, uniform finish without removing the screen or tiles. Whether it’s scuffs and light scratches and a dull, stained or worn surface, we can help, on ceramic, cast iron and stone resin alike.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Whauphill and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Whauphill questions
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
We would stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Typically, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of Dumfries and Galloway. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
What a repair cannot fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Leaking waste fittings
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Trays cracked in several places
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
- Enamelled steel
How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the day after.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
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 over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
