About our shower tray repair in Harcourt Hill
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack does not come back. If you are dealing with staining and dullness across the tray and a tray that flexes, we can normally put it right, on stone resin, cast iron and ceramic alike.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, normally until the day after.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have a window or extractor fan available

FAQs for Harcourt Hill
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do you come to Harcourt Hill?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Harcourt Hill from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Landlord and trade work in Harcourt Hill
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Harcourt Hill use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Trays cracked in several places
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
What your shower tray is made of matters
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.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Check the seal every few months
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
