Your questions about shower tray repair in Hockering
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
How long before I can shower?
Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Shower tray repair in Hockering, done in place
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. Our repair technicians work on ceramic, enamelled steel and cast iron, and people most frequently call us about staining and dullness across the tray and scuffs and light scratches.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, usually by the next day, you can use the shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Why repair rather than replace?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- One visit for most repairs
- No need to remove anything

How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from photos
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the whole shower tray
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
