Shower tray repair in Hilldyke without replacing anything

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. Common call-outs are for scuffs and light scratches and a tray that flexes, in ceramic, enamelled steel and acrylic.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Lincolnshire.

Landlord and trade work in Hilldyke

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

When a repair is not the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Trays cracked in several places

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Hilldyke

  • Enamelled steel
  • Cast iron
  • Stone resin
  • Acrylic
  • Ceramic

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Enamelled steel

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

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can price the job.

Advice

When to call us in Hilldyke

Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, typically on the edges or near the plughole.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole

Comparing quotes

  • What preparation is included
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

Our hiring checklist

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Hilldyke. The price reflects:

  • How many areas need work
  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Hilldyke: your questions answered

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

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

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced without removing it.

Will it make a mess?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Only if you are sure it is not leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

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

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
