Mountain Hare questions
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
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.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
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.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
How we handle shower tray repair in Mountain Hare
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack doesn’t come back. Typical jobs include chipped corners or rims and a crack across the base, on acrylic, stone resin and enamelled steel.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Advice
How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Use the extractor fan
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Leaking waste fittings
- A tray that moves underfoot
- A tray broken in more than one place
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin

Landlord and trade work in Mountain Hare
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Mountain Hare use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
