Shower tray repair in Halesowen without replacing anything
We repair plenty of shower trays. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes are all things we fix in place. We work on enamelled steel, cast iron and ceramic, and common reasons people contact us are cracks running from the waste and edge chips from dropped bottles.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

How the visit works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Store bottles off the tray
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
Why repair rather than replace?
The tray is typically the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What we are called out for in Halesowen
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Chipped corners or rims
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- A cracked shower tray

For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Halesowen use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What shower tray repair costs

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Halesowen. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
