About our shower tray repair in Hill Top
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. Our technicians work on acrylic, enamelled steel and ceramic, and people most frequently call us about a cracked shower tray and chips on the edges.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Use the extractor fan
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Repair or replace: which is better?
The tray is generally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Take a look at our pricing.
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, usually until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Hill Top. What changes the price is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the whole shower tray
Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Hill Top, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
FAQs for Hill Top
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How long before I can shower?
Usually the day after. We’ll confirm before we leave.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Trays cracked in several places
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
