For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
About our shower tray repair in Toft Hill
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. Common call-outs are for scratches from cleaning or grit and chipped corners or rims, across stone resin, cast iron and enamelled steel.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. The room is left tidy.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Getting a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Toft Hill: your questions answered
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced without removing it.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What we cannot put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
