DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Shower tray repair in Russell Hill without replacing anything
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack does not come back. Common call-outs are for a damaged area around the waste and edge chips from dropped bottles, on cast iron, ceramic and acrylic.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Use the extractor fan
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. 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.

Questions from Russell Hill
How long does it take to cure?
Generally the next day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Russell Hill
Rigid trays do not bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Chips on the edges
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Chips caused during fitting
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
Questions to ask before you book
- How soon you can use it again
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether a trained technician does the job
The process
You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, typically until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know about parking or access
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Materials we repair
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
- Stone resin
Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
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 can be filled and matched.
