DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
What affects the price in Housel Bay
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Housel Bay. The price reflects:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Housel Bay. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode

What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
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.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Leaking waste fittings
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
