Shower tray repair in King's Norton, done in place
A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can typically be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. Our repair technicians work on acrylic, ceramic and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are chipped corners or rims and damage from a refit or building work.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Get a moving tray checked
- Check the seal every few months
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
Repair or replace in King's Norton?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What happens on the day
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos 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 the room is left clean and tidy.
- We ensure the tray does not flex and look for 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 generally usable the following day.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
