FAQs for Saltley
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do you cover Saltley?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Saltley from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Check the seal every few months
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Do you need shower tray repair in Saltley?
Heavy bottles, shower heads and dropped razors chip trays, typically on the edges or near the plughole.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Movement when you stand on it
- Scratches in the surface
- Chips caused during fitting
- Chipped corners or rims
Before booking anyone
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- When it can be used again
How it works
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the day after.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Make sure the area is dry
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a tray typically means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched and costs far less. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
