How to care for the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

Shower tray repair in Hollins without replacing anything

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We work on acrylic, enamelled steel and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are damage from a refit or building work and edge chips from dropped bottles.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Hollins as everywhere else we work.

The process

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  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. Once cured, generally by the next day, you can use the shower.

Hollins questions

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

How long does it take to cure?

We will give you the curing time on the day.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Should you replace it?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Hollins. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What we cannot put right

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

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Leaking waste fittings

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Hollins. The price reflects:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of

Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

When to call us in Hollins

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks normally point to an uneven base.

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Cracks running from the waste

Questions to ask before you book

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What preparation is included
  • Who turns up on the day

10 questions to ask before booking

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
