About our shower tray repair in Birchgrove
We repair a lot of shower trays. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces can all be put right without removing the tray. Typical jobs include chips or cracks by the plughole and chips caused during fitting, on stone resin, enamelled steel and cast iron.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

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 frequently lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Birchgrove questions
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you cover Birchgrove?
We do. Technicians travel to Birchgrove from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Trays cracked in several places
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- A tray that moves underfoot
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we work on in Birchgrove
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

What affects the price in Birchgrove
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A picture taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why book with us
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- No need to remove anything
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

How the visit works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Store bottles off the tray
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
