Shower tray repair at your home in Hamister
Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes are all things we fix in place. We work on acrylic, cast iron and stone resin, and the jobs we see most are damage from a refit or building work and scratches from cleaning or grit.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Check the seal every few months
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
Questions from Hamister
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How much does shower tray repair cost in Hamister?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your ZE2 postcode.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.
Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
