How we handle shower tray repair in Dane Hills
We repair plenty of shower trays. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes can all be put right without removing the tray. Common call-outs are for movement when you stand on it and a damaged area around the waste, on ceramic, enamelled steel and cast iron.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

For landlords and businesses
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 regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
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 your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Dane Hills. What changes the price is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your LE3 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Questions from Dane Hills
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Only if you are sure it is not leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Usually, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Are there extra charges for Dane Hills?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What happens on the day
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, including clearing up.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the following day.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
Why repair rather than replace?
A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
What you get with us
- Colour-matched on site
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- A year’s guarantee on all work
