Shower Tray Repair for Hoyland homes
Local shower tray repair for Hoyland: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Chipped corners or rims
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Shower tray repair in Hoyland, done in place
We repair plenty of shower trays. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces can all be put right without removing the tray. We work on enamelled steel, cast iron and stone resin, and the jobs we see most are a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and a cracked shower tray.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

What we cannot put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
The process
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the day after.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
