How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Get a moving tray checked
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
Other services in Porthill
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
Porthill: your questions answered
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
What areas do you cover?
The whole UK, including all of Stoke-on-Trent. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Do you cover Porthill?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Porthill. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Repair or replace: which is better?
The tray is normally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Advice
Do you need shower tray repair in Porthill?
A tired-looking tray is frequently the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale wear the finish away.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Movement when you stand on it
- Cracks running from the waste
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Scuffs and light scratches
What your quote should include
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How soon you can use it again
What affects the price in Porthill
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A picture taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your ST5 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
