How we handle shower tray repair in Catshill
The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We will explain what we find. We work on acrylic, cast iron and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are staining and dullness across the tray and a crack across the base.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

What affects the price in Catshill
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the entire shower tray
Most clients in Catshill get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Repair or replace in Catshill?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, typically until the following day.
How to prepare
- Ensure the area is dry
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price

Advice
Catshill: your questions answered
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.
Do you work in Catshill?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Catshill from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed price. There is no obligation to book.
When can I use the shower again?
We will give you the curing time on the day.
How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Check the seal every few months
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.
