How we handle shower tray repair in Ball Green
A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. We’re frequently asked to fix chipped corners or rims and scratches from cleaning or grit, across ceramic, acrylic and enamelled steel.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Questions from Ball Green
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Are there extra charges for Ball Green?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Should you replace it?
The tray is generally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

When a repair is not the answer
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Trays cracked in several places
- A tray that moves underfoot
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
- Enamelled steel
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Get a moving tray checked
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
What we are called out for in Ball Green
Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Chips usually come from dropped bottles.
Look out for any of the following:
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- A damaged area around the waste
- Cracks running from the waste
- A dull, stained or worn surface
What your quote should include
- If travel is included in the price
- When it can be used again
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What protection goes down before work starts

What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the following day.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 often lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. 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.
