Shower tray repair for Hilton homes

Shower tray repair at your home in Hilton

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack doesn’t come back. Common call-outs are for chips or cracks by the plughole and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, on enamelled steel, acrylic and ceramic.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

Repair or replace in Hilton?

A new shower tray normally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Hilton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

When to call us in Hilton

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

Clients generally contact us about:

  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Chips caused during fitting

Comparing quotes

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How to care for the finish
  • How your room will be protected

Our hiring checklist

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

What we do, step by step

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Your questions about shower tray repair in Hilton

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.

Are there extra charges for Hilton?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

What we cannot put right

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
