DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Barnacle

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

If you manage property in Barnacle, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

When to call us in Barnacle

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

People usually call us when they notice one of these:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

10 questions to ask before you book

When a repair isn’t the answer

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

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

FAQs for Barnacle

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

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.

When can I use the shower again?

We will give you the curing time on the day, usually the following day.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do you cover the whole of Coventry?

All of Coventry, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  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

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Barnacle. The price depends on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Barnacle. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Barnacle, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
