Do you need shower tray repair in Hillway?
Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Look out for these signs:
- Cracks running from the waste
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Chips on the edges
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
Shower tray repair in Hillway without replacing anything
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that is the case. If you are dealing with chipped corners or rims and staining and dullness across the tray, we can usually put it right.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Common questions in Hillway
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Hillway?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your PO35 postcode.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Hillway. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A picture taken from further back
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Landlord and trade work in Hillway
Rental properties take more wear, 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 work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hillway as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

How it works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Advice
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.
Repair or replace: which is better?
The tray is typically the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray broken in more than one place
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
