Shower tray repair at your home in Briery Hill

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. If you’re dealing with snagging damage in a new bathroom and edge chips from dropped bottles, we can help.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.

Briery Hill: your questions answered

When can I use the shower again?

You’ll get the exact time when we finish.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Generally, as long as it doesn’t flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Briery Hill?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Do you work in Briery Hill?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Briery Hill for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. 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 tell you if anything changes.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

How to get a price

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new shower tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A crack across the base
  • A tray that flexes

What your quote should include

What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Acrylic
  • Enamelled steel
  • Ceramic
  • Stone resin
  • Cast iron

How to care for the repair

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
