Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Store bottles off the tray
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
How we handle shower tray repair in Heath Common
The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We will explain what we find. Our repair technicians work on acrylic, stone resin and ceramic, and people most frequently call us about scuffs and light scratches and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

FAQs for Heath Common
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What affects the price in Heath Common
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Heath Common. What changes the price is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Heath Common, and we will reply with a fixed price.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the next day.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price
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 price, not a guess.
Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
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 does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Do you need shower tray repair in Heath Common?
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks generally point to an uneven base.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- A crack across the base
- Chipped corners or rims
- Movement when you stand on it
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
Before booking anyone
- How soon you can use it again
- What aftercare is recommended
- How your room will be protected
- Whether they match the colour on site
Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
