Shower tray repair in High Heath without replacing anything

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. We’re often asked to fix edge chips from dropped bottles and cracks running from the waste, on enamelled steel, cast iron and stone resin.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Before and after: an old shower tray refinished by Surface Doctor

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Most clients in High Heath get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • A tray broken in more than one place

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we work on in High Heath

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

Do you need shower tray repair in High Heath?

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks usually point to an uneven base.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • A cracked shower tray
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Damage from a refit or building work

Before booking anyone

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What preparation is included

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace in High Heath?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why High Heath clients choose us

  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Landlord and trade work in High Heath

For anyone letting property in or around High Heath, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Common questions in High Heath

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in High Heath.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
