Shower tray repair in Boldmere without replacing anything
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack does not come back. We work on stone resin, enamelled steel and ceramic, and people most often call us about chips on the edges and scuffs and light scratches.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Boldmere. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
Most customers in Boldmere get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What a repair cannot fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Trays cracked in several places
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Repairing versus replacing in Boldmere
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Store bottles off the tray
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, 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.
