About our shower tray repair in Short Heath
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that is the case. If you are dealing with scratches from cleaning or grit and cracks running from the waste, we can normally put it right, on cast iron, stone resin and enamelled steel alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
Every job is a little different, 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.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Should you replace it?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
What you get with us
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- No extra charge for your area
- Colour mixed on the day to match
See our prices page.
How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice
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.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Questions from Short Heath

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Short Heath.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
We would stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
