How we handle shower tray repair in Hollingwood

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. If you’re dealing with staining and dullness across the tray and chips caused during fitting, we can help.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

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

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Related advice

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

How to care for the repair

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Hollingwood

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Normally, as long as it does not flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

When can I use the shower again?

Generally the day after. We’ll confirm before we leave.

Do you cover Hollingwood?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Hollingwood and the rest of Derbyshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The tray is typically the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.
