Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What we’re called out for in Johnson's Hillock
Cracks often start at the waste, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Movement when you stand on it
- Chips on the edges
- A cracked shower tray
- A damaged area around the waste
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- How the room is protected while they work

Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Check the seal every few months
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.
When a repair isn’t the answer
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Leaking waste fittings
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

FAQs for Johnson's Hillock
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
We would stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.

What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the following day.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know about parking or access
