About our shower tray repair in Birchgrove
You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. If you are dealing with a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and cracks running from the waste, we can generally put it right.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Birchgrove as everywhere else we work.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Get a moving tray checked
- Ventilate the room after showers
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

What affects the price in Birchgrove
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Birchgrove. What changes the price is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Birchgrove: your questions answered
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Are there extra charges for Birchgrove?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

- Chips on the edges
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- A cracked shower tray
- Scuffs and light scratches
Before you book anyone
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- When it can be used again
- How the room is protected while they work
