Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tray typically means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why us?

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Colour-matched on site

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

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.

Common problems we fix in Hillstreet

A tired-looking tray is often the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale wear the finish away.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Scratches in the surface
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • A cracked shower tray
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

Before booking anyone

  • When it can be used again
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Who turns up on the day

Our hiring checklist

Your questions about shower tray repair in Hillstreet

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

Do you come to Hillstreet?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Hillstreet and the rest of Hampshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

When can I use the shower again?

Usually the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote, usually with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, generally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Related advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Leaking waste fittings

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Hillstreet. The price reflects:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed price

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
