Shower tray repair at your home in Birkenhead
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. We regularly repair stone resin, cast iron and enamelled steel, and common reasons people contact us are chipped corners or rims and scratches in the surface.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.
Your questions about shower tray repair in Birkenhead
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced.
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.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Birkenhead. Prices don’t change with location.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Why repair rather than replace?
The tray is typically the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
What affects the price in Birkenhead
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Birkenhead. The price reflects:
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Birkenhead. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How it works
We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire 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 typically be used the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price

Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Check the seal every few months
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
