Shower tray repair in Brimsdown, done in place
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that is the case. Our technicians work on ceramic, cast iron and enamelled steel, and people most often call us about a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and scuffs and light scratches.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tray generally means removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and tiling again. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What affects the price in Brimsdown
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
For a price in Brimsdown, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
How the visit works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, normally until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
If you manage property in Brimsdown, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
When to call us in Brimsdown
Cracks frequently start at the waste, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.
People normally call us after spotting something like this:
- A damaged area around the waste
- Damage from a refit or building work
- A cracked shower tray
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
Before booking anyone
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What aftercare is recommended
- How your room will be protected
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
