Shower Tray Repair for Sunny Hill homes
Our technicians come to Sunny Hill for shower tray chip, crack and scratch repairs and resurfacing. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Damage from a refit or building work
How we handle shower tray repair in Sunny Hill
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 repair lasts. If you are dealing with chipped corners or rims and a tray that flexes, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.
Your questions about shower tray repair in Sunny Hill
Do you work in Sunny Hill?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Sunny Hill for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Derby. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
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.
How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the day after.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
What we’re called out for in Sunny Hill
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Chips typically come from dropped bottles.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Damage around the waste
- Scratches in the surface
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
What to look for in a quote
- What prep work is covered
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Who will actually do the work
- How changes to the job are handled
Why repair rather than replace?
A new shower tray generally means removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why book with us
- Colour-matched on site
- Same prices wherever you are
- A fixed quote before booking
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Materials we work on in Sunny Hill

- Stone resin
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
