Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Hemel Hempstead. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

- No extra charge for your area
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
Take a look at our full price list.
What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Leaking waste fittings
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
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.

What else we do in Hemel Hempstead
Landlord and trade work in Hemel Hempstead
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Should I try a DIY kit 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, it’s worth having it done properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Hemel Hempstead questions
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
How long before I can shower?
We’ll give you the curing time on the day, usually the following day.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Frequently. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What we do, step by step
You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Ask for a price
