If the entire tray looks tired, we can resurface it, for a clean, uniform finish without removing the screen or tiles. We are frequently asked to fix chips caused during fitting and damage around the waste, on cast iron, acrylic and enamelled steel.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Common questions in Hill Side

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Do you cover Hill Side?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Hill Side. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

What happens after I send photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

How to care for the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

The process

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Ensure the area is dry

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hill Side as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Hill Side. The price reflects:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed price

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Hill Side

Cracks often start at the waste, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • A tray that flexes

Before you book anyone

  • How your room will be protected
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Choosing a repair company

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
