Shower tray repair at your home in Hawcross
The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We will tell you if that is the case. We are frequently asked to fix scratches from cleaning or grit and chips caused during fitting, on enamelled steel, cast iron and stone resin.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How much damage there is
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Repairing versus replacing in Hawcross
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Hawcross. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Use the extractor fan
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hawcross use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

What we do, step by step
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray.
- We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice
What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
