A worn or stained tray can be resurfaced, for a clean, uniform finish without removing the screen or tiles. Typical jobs include chips or cracks by the plughole and staining and dullness across the tray, in enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

Honest limits

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface in most cases. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Make sure the area is dry

How to get a price

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

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.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Brock Hill.
