Local shower tray repair for Kings Norton: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.

How it works
We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the following day.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Open a window if you can
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

How we handle shower tray repair in Kings Norton
A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. Common call-outs are for snagging damage in a new bathroom and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, on cast iron, ceramic and stone resin.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once

You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A photo taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus

FAQs for Kings Norton
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced without removing it.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
What we cannot put right
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Repairing versus replacing in Kings Norton
The tray is usually the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why book with us
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- We leave the room as we found it
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Store bottles off the tray
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Ventilate the room after showers
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Kings Norton
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
People generally call us when they notice something like this:
- A crack across the base
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Chipped corners or rims
Before you book anyone
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How to look after the finish
- When it can be used again
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
