How we handle shower tray repair in Hillhouse
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. If you’re dealing with chips or cracks by the plughole and damage from a refit or building work, we can help, on acrylic, ceramic and enamelled steel alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Honest limits
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
How the visit works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Can pets and children be at home?
