When to call us in Whiteabbey
A tired-looking tray is frequently the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale strip the surface finish.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Damage around the waste
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

Landlords, agents and businesses in Whiteabbey
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
Repair or replace in Whiteabbey?
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. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Questions from Whiteabbey
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
What areas do you cover?
All of Newtownabbey, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Whiteabbey and nearby
Whiteabbey is about 2 miles east of Newtownabbey, in Newtownabbey. We travel to homes and businesses in Whiteabbey and the surrounding area, so there’s no workshop to go to.
All of BT37 is within our area, from the main roads to the quietest streets. We also travel to Newtownabbey (2 miles west), Holywood (4 miles south-east), Belfast (5 miles south), Carrickfergus (6 miles north-east) and Dundonald (7 miles south-east). Remote and island addresses take a little more planning, so it’s best to call first.
Around Whiteabbey
We visit homes around St James' Primary School and Nursery Unit, Abbey Community College and Church of the Ascension and the streets around them. Nearby you’ll also find Museum at the Mill (2.1 miles north-west) and Belfast Castle (2.7 miles south-west). For a walk, there is Carnmoney Hill and Belfast Lough RSPB Reserve.
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Check the seal every few months
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the area is dry
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
