DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Shower tray repair in Hibaldstow without replacing anything

We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll explain what we find. Our repair technicians work on acrylic, ceramic and stone resin, and people most often call us about chips or cracks by the plughole and chips on the edges.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

How to look after the repair

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

When to call us in Hibaldstow

Heavy bottles, shower heads and dropped razors chip trays, typically on the edges or near the plughole.

People typically call us when they notice something like this:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Chips on the edges
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A cracked shower tray

Our hiring checklist

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice

Should you replace it?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
