How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Do you need shower tray repair in Holmes?
Heavy bottles, shower heads and dropped razors chip trays, usually along the edges or by the waste.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Damage around the waste
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Chipped corners or rims
What to look for in a quote
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How changes to the job are handled
- What preparation is included
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can price the job without visiting.
Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Holmes: your questions answered
How long does it take to cure?
Typically the day after. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Lancashire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Landlord and trade work in Holmes
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.

What else we do in Holmes
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Leaking waste fittings
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
