Birling questions
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do you work in Birling?
We do. Technicians travel to Birling from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Normally, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
When to call us in Birling
Rigid trays do not bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A crack across the base
- Damage from a refit or building work
- A tray that flexes
- Chipped corners or rims
What your quote should include
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How long it needs to cure
- Who will actually do the work
- What preparation is included
Why repair rather than replace?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Why book with us
- We leave the room as we found it
- No extra charge for your area
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Nothing taken out or refitted

Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, typically until the day after.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
