How it works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

When to call us in Barber Green
Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, generally along the edges or by the waste.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Chips on the edges
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
What your quote should include
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What aftercare is recommended
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What preparation is included
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
Email us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Barber Green, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
What we cannot put right
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Trays cracked in several places
- A tray that moves underfoot

Your questions about shower tray repair in Barber Green
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
How much does shower tray repair cost in Barber Green?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Barber Green. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
