Shower tray repair in Hinksford, done in place
A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Whether it’s chips on the edges and scratches in the surface, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

Common questions in Hinksford
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Generally, as long as it does not flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Check the seal every few months
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Get a moving tray checked
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For anyone letting property in or around Hinksford, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
What we’re called out for in Hinksford
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks usually point to an uneven base.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Chipped corners or rims
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Cracks running from the waste
What your quote should include
- How long it needs to cure
- What preparation is included
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How changes to the job are handled
The process
You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear the area around the damage
Getting a price
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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, a professional repair is worth it.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Email us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your DY6 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
