Shower tray repair near Perry Common

Common questions in Perry Common

How long does it take to cure?

Normally by the following day. We’ll confirm before we leave.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Store bottles off the tray

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What affects the price in Perry Common

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send pictures for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Common problems we fix in Perry Common

Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Scratches in the surface

What to look for in a quote

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What prep work is covered
  • How the colour is matched

How to compare quotes

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, 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 in Birmingham and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What a repair cannot fix

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

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

What we work on

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