Repair or replace in Hillbutts?
Replacing a tray generally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- Work done at your home or business
- No need to remove anything
- We leave the room as we found it
- Straight answers about what a repair can do

Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Store bottles off the tray
Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep a parking space free if you can

What else we do in Hillbutts
Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Hillbutts
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote. There is no obligation to book.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Hillbutts
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
When to call us in Hillbutts

These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Damage around the waste
- Chips caused during fitting
- A cracked shower tray
- A dull, stained or worn surface
