What affects the price in Hardwick
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material 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.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
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’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Use the extractor fan
- Check the seal every few months
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
Repair or replace: which is better?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. 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, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Hardwick questions
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Hardwick?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
What areas do you cover?
All of Birmingham, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Do you work in Hardwick?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Hardwick. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
