What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

How we handle shower tray repair in Lee Bank

Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces can all be put right without removing the tray. We’re often asked to fix chips caused during fitting and cracks running from the waste, on acrylic, cast iron and ceramic.

Lee Bank questions

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Lee Bank.

Will it make a mess?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

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.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, 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.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Landlord and trade work in Lee Bank

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Birmingham and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What affects the price in Lee Bank

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

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

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

When we’d advise against a repair

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
