Landlords, agents and businesses in Hemington
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
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.
Shower tray repair in Hemington, done in place
A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. We work on stone resin, acrylic and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are chipped corners or rims and a cracked shower tray.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

FAQs for Hemington
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Normally, as long as it does not flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Trays cracked in several places
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on

What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Should you replace it?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
