DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Your questions about shower tray repair in Killerby
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Frequently. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
When to call us in Killerby

Honest limits
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Trays cracked in several places
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic
- Stone resin
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
Should you replace it?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Killerby. What changes the price is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

What else we do in Killerby
Repairs by material
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 are filled and matched to the surface.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, including clearing up.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
Most customers in Killerby get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
