Repair or replace in Hartlip?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
- Cast iron
What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
FAQs for Hartlip
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do you work in Hartlip?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Hartlip. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Store bottles off the tray
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- 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.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Have a window or extractor fan available
