Shower tray repair at your home in Upper Hackney
We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We will explain what we find. If you are dealing with cracks running from the waste and chips on the edges, we can generally put it right.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Upper Hackney as everywhere else we work.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Upper Hackney. The price comes down to:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
Most clients in Upper Hackney get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
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. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Common questions in Upper Hackney
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Only if you are sure it is not leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do you work in Upper Hackney?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Upper Hackney and the rest of Derbyshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
How much does shower tray repair cost in Upper Hackney?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
Landlord and trade work in Upper Hackney
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Derbyshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
Repairing versus replacing in Upper Hackney
Replacing a tray typically means removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and tiling again. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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.
Why us?
- No extra charge for your area
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- One visit for most repairs
Read our prices page.
How the visit works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the following day.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Trays cracked in several places
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
