About our shower tray repair in Howden Hall
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack does not come back. Our technicians work on acrylic, cast iron and stone resin, and the jobs we see most are scratches in the surface and damage around the waste.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Trays cracked in several places
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know about parking or access

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Most clients in Howden Hall get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
