DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
About our shower tray repair in New Mills
We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. Common call-outs are for damage around the waste and snagging damage in a new bathroom, in enamelled steel, acrylic and stone resin.
Every job is backed for twelve months in New Mills and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

FAQs for New Mills
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
We would stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Derbyshire.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
What affects the price in New Mills
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, generally by the day after, you can use the shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Getting a price
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Signs you need shower tray repair in New Mills
Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Chips typically come from dropped bottles.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Chips on the edges
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- A cracked shower tray
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
Before booking anyone
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What aftercare is recommended
- What prep work is covered
- Whether a trained technician does the job
Why repair rather than replace?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why book with us
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- One visit for most repairs
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
Take a look at our full price list.
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.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
