Shower tray repair & resurfacing in Marston, Birmingham
Our technicians come to Marston for shower tray chip, crack and scratch repairs and resurfacing. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.
- Repairs from £95
- A damaged area around the waste
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Shower tray repair in Marston, done in place
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We will explain what we find. We regularly repair enamelled steel, ceramic and stone resin, and people most frequently call us about staining and dullness across the tray and a cracked shower tray.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Use the extractor fan
- Rinse away soap after showering
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
Common problems we fix in Marston
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
People generally call us when they notice one of these:
- A crack across the base
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- A dull, stained or worn surface
Questions to ask before booking
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- What preparation is included
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What happens if they find more damage
How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

What your shower tray is made of matters
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 can be filled and matched.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
What else we do in Marston
For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
The process
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the next day.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
