Professional shower tray repair Irvine services provide the perfect solution for damaged shower bases throughout North Ayrshire's largest town. From the modern developments around Harbourside to the established residential areas of Bourtreehill and Dreghorn, our expert technicians restore shower trays to pristine condition. With 30 years of experience and a comprehensive 12-month warranty, we've become Irvine's trusted choice for shower tray restoration.
Irvine's coastal location and Scotland's New Town heritage create unique challenges for bathroom fixtures. The sea air from Irvine Bay, combined with the demands of busy family homes across the town's extensive housing estates, means shower trays face constant use and environmental stress. Our specialised repair techniques, developed over three decades serving Scottish homes, ensure lasting results whether you're in a waterfront apartment overlooking the harbour or a family home in Girdle Toll.
Our comprehensive shower tray repair Irvine service addresses every type of damage found in North Ayrshire homes. From hairline cracks caused by thermal stress to deep chips from dropped items, we have the expertise and materials to restore any shower tray. With 30 years serving Scottish properties, we understand the specific challenges faced by Irvine residents.
The repair process begins with thorough cleaning and preparation. We remove all soap residue, limescale, and any loose material around damaged areas. For chips and scratches, we use colour-matched repair compounds that bond permanently with acrylic, resin, ceramic, or stone surfaces. Our technicians carry an extensive range of colours to match any shower tray, from standard white to designer shades.
Crack repairs require special attention to prevent water penetration that could damage your bathroom floor. We use flexible sealants that accommodate the natural movement of shower trays while maintaining a waterproof seal. The repair is then reinforced with fibreglass mesh for added strength, ensuring it withstands daily use for years to come.
Full resurfacing transforms worn or discoloured shower trays without the mess and expense of replacement. Using professional spray equipment, we apply multiple coats of specialist bathroom paint that's resistant to hot water, cleaning products, and constant use. The result is a shower tray that looks brand new, covered by our 12-month warranty.
Irvine's mix of housing, from 1960s New Town developments to modern harbourside apartments, presents various shower tray challenges. Older properties in areas like Bourtreehill and Vineburgh often have original acrylic trays that have yellowed or developed stress cracks. These can be completely restored rather than replaced, saving hundreds of pounds.
The coastal climate affects shower trays differently across Irvine. Properties near the seafront experience higher humidity levels, which can cause sealant failure and water ingress around tray edges. Our marine-grade sealants are specifically chosen to withstand these conditions, providing long-lasting protection against moisture damage.
Our shower tray repair service covers all areas of Irvine and surrounding North Ayrshire. From the town centre near Rivergate Shopping Centre to the residential estates spreading east towards Kilmarnock, we provide rapid response throughout the KA11 and KA12 postcode areas.
Central Irvine: Properties around the town centre, East Road, and Bank Street benefit from our quick response times. The mix of older tenements and modern flats here often require different repair approaches, which our experienced technicians handle expertly.
Harbourside & Beach Park: The prestigious waterfront developments need special attention due to increased moisture exposure. We use marine-grade materials that resist the coastal environment while maintaining the high-end finish expected in these properties.
Bourtreehill & Broomlands: These established residential areas feature mainly family homes where shower trays see heavy daily use. Our repairs are designed to withstand the demands of busy households, backed by our comprehensive warranty.
Dreghorn & Springside: The village communities on Irvine's outskirts receive the same professional service as town centre properties. We understand the importance of minimal disruption in these close-knit communities.
Girdle Toll & Stanecastle: These growing areas with new-build properties often have modern shower trays that require specific repair techniques. We're familiar with all major manufacturers' products and maintain their warranties where possible.

Compare to replacement costs: New shower tray supply and installation typically costs £800-£2,500 in Irvine, plus potential tiling and plumbing work. Our repair service saves you 70-80% while avoiding days of disruption.
A penthouse apartment overlooking Irvine Harbour had a premium stone resin shower tray with a 15cm crack caused by building settlement. The property management company needed a quick solution to avoid water damage to the apartment below. We reinforced the crack with fibreglass mesh and sealed it with flexible compound that accommodates building movement. The repair took 3 hours, cost £285, and saved the client over £2,000 compared to replacement. The tray has performed perfectly for 18 months under our warranty.
Mrs Campbell's 1970s acrylic shower tray had yellowed badly and had multiple chips from years of family use. Rather than face the disruption of bathroom renovation, she chose our resurfacing service. We restored the tray to brilliant white, repaired all chips, and applied an anti-slip coating for safety. The work took 4 hours and cost £395 - a fraction of the £3,500 quoted for tray replacement and retiling. With 30 years experience, we knew exactly how to handle this vintage tray.
A property manager responsible for office shower facilities near Riverside Business Centre needed five shower trays repaired across the complex. Each had different issues - chips, cracks, and worn surfaces. We completed all repairs in one day, minimising disruption to tenants. Total cost was £1,250, compared to £10,000+ for replacements. All repairs carry our 12-month commercial warranty, giving the property manager complete peace of mind.
With proper care, our shower tray repairs last 10-15 years. We use professional-grade materials designed for bathroom environments, and our 30 years of experience ensures correct application. The 12-month warranty covers any unlikely failures, though most repairs far exceed this period. Regular cleaning with non-abrasive products helps maintain the repair.
Yes, stone resin trays are one of our specialities. These premium trays, common in Irvine's newer properties, require specific repair techniques. We use colour-matched stone repair compounds that bond perfectly with the original material. The repair is then polished to match the surrounding finish, making it completely invisible.
Absolutely. We repair textured and anti-slip surfaces while maintaining their safety features. If the anti-slip coating is worn, we can reapply it during the repair process. This is particularly important for elderly residents or those with mobility concerns. The new coating meets all safety standards.
