Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Shower tray repair in Netherton, done in place
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. Our repair technicians work on acrylic, ceramic and stone resin, and people most frequently call us about damage around the waste and edge chips from dropped bottles.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Netherton: your questions answered
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Often. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
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.
How the visit works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, generally by the following day, you can use the shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know which floor the room is on

When to call us in Netherton
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- A damaged area around the waste
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Scratches in the surface
- Cracks running from the waste
What to look for in a quote
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How the colour is matched
- How long it needs to cure
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Netherton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Netherton. The price comes down to:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
