What happens on the day

- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit

Advice
Shower tray repair at your home in Barrow Hill
The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We will explain what we find. We work on stone resin, cast iron and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are a damaged area around the waste and a cracked shower tray.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

FAQs for Barrow Hill
What areas do you cover?
All of Derbyshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Do you cover Barrow Hill?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Barrow Hill from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
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.
Do you redo the sealant?
We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
How long before I can shower?
We will give you the curing time on the day, generally the following day.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Honest limits
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Trays cracked in several places
- Leaking waste fittings
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we work on in Barrow Hill
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
- Enamelled steel
How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.
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.
Repair or replace: which is better?
The tray is typically the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Why us?

Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
What we are called out for in Barrow Hill
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks usually point to an uneven base.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Chips caused during fitting
- Cracks running from the waste
- Staining and dullness across the tray

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
