For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Honest limits
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Leaking waste fittings
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder

What we work on
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
FAQs for Hoby
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
We would stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you quote from photos?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
How long before I can shower?
Normally by the following day. We’ll confirm before we leave.
Do you need shower tray repair in Hoby?
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks usually point to an uneven base.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Movement when you stand on it
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Scratches in the surface
- Edge chips from dropped bottles

What happens on the day
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the 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.
- Once cured, typically by the following day, you can use the shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
