Shower tray repair at your home in Kingston upon Hull
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. If you’re dealing with movement when you stand on it and chips on the edges, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

What else we do in Kingston upon Hull
Kingston upon Hull: your questions answered
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you work in Kingston upon Hull?
We do. We send a technician to Kingston upon Hull for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
What we’re called out for in Kingston upon Hull
Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
Customers usually contact us about:
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Scratches in the surface
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- A tray that flexes
Before you book anyone
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- When it can be used again
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Get a moving tray checked
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
What we cannot put right
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray broken in more than one place
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
