Shower tray repair in Lower Penn without replacing anything
In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. We work on cast iron, enamelled steel and ceramic, and common reasons people get in touch are chipped corners or rims and staining and dullness across the tray.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Your questions about shower tray repair in Lower Penn
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
How much does shower tray repair cost in Lower Penn?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Use the extractor fan
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
Work for landlords and builders
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Wolverhampton and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
