No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, so Red Hill is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Usually, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Shower tray repair in Red Hill, done in place

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 does not come back. We are frequently asked to fix movement when you stand on it and edge chips from dropped bottles, on stone resin, enamelled steel and ceramic.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Should you replace it?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is typically best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.

Take a look at our full price list.

What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Stone resin
  • Acrylic
  • Cast iron
  • Ceramic
  • Enamelled steel

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.

Common problems we fix in Red Hill

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Damage around the waste
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Staining and dullness across the tray

Before you book anyone

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the price covers travel

10 questions to ask before you book

What affects the price in Red Hill

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Red Hill. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, tidy-up included.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, normally until the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Getting a price

For a price in Red Hill, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
