How we handle shower tray repair in Sperberry Hill
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack does not come back. We work on enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic, and people most often call us about scratches from cleaning or grit and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

When we would advise against a repair
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
- Stone resin
Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
If you are 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 doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Use the extractor fan
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Get a moving tray checked
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Sperberry Hill
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
How much does shower tray repair cost in Sperberry Hill?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
We would stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.
Why repair rather than replace?
The tray is typically the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Sperberry Hill. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
