Shower tray repair in Millhayes without replacing anything
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack doesn’t come back. Common call-outs are for a damaged area around the waste and chips caused during fitting, on acrylic, enamelled steel and stone resin.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Related advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Millhayes
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Stone resin

What else we do in Millhayes
What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Common questions in Millhayes
What happens after I send pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.
Should you replace it?
A new shower tray typically means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Check the seal every few months
- Use the extractor fan
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
