Need shower tray repair in Hilderstone?

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Shower tray repair in Hilderstone without replacing anything

A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Typical jobs include damage from a refit or building work and scratches in the surface, in stone resin, acrylic and enamelled steel.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Hilderstone questions

Do you cover the whole of Staffordshire?

The whole UK, including all of Staffordshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do I have to be there?

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
