Shower tray repair at your home in Lowe Hill

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. Nothing is taken out, so the enclosure and tiles aren’t disturbed. Our repair technicians work on ceramic, cast iron and enamelled steel, and common reasons people get in touch are scratches in the surface and a damaged area around the waste.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Lowe Hill as everywhere else we work.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

When to call us in Lowe Hill

Cracks often start at the waste, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Damage around the waste
  • Chipped corners or rims

Before you book anyone

  • How the colour is matched
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Our hiring checklist

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Lowe Hill, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

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.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

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

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What we cannot put right

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

What happens on the day

We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, generally until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

FAQs for Lowe Hill

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

We would stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Generally, as long as it does not flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
