Shower tray repair in Hunger Hill without replacing anything
A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can usually be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. We work on stone resin, cast iron and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are chips caused during fitting and edge chips from dropped bottles.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Landlord and trade work in Hunger Hill
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
What your shower tray is made of matters
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.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Common problems we fix in Hunger Hill
A tired-looking tray is often the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale wear the finish away.
People typically call us after spotting one of these:
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Cracks running from the waste

- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Who turns up on the day

What else we do in Hunger Hill
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
The process
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, tidy-up included.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know about parking or access

Your questions about shower tray repair in Hunger Hill
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is there a guarantee?

Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

How quickly can you book me in?

How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Check the seal every few months
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Store bottles off the tray
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.
