How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Questions from Houghton on the Hill
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Do you work in Houghton on the Hill?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Houghton on the Hill from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
How much does shower tray repair cost in Houghton on the Hill?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.

Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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 usually the cheaper route.
