FAQs for Lea Heath
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Are there extra charges for Lea Heath?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Only if you are sure it is not leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Usually, as long as it doesn’t flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.

- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.

Common problems we fix in Lea Heath
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- A crack across the base
- Chips on the edges
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
Before you book anyone
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- Whether the price covers travel
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Landlord and trade work in Lea Heath
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Staffordshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. 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.
Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, 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.
Repairing versus replacing in Lea Heath
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
