FAQs for Church Knowle
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you cover the whole of Dorset?
All of Dorset, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Church Knowle?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new shower tray generally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Church Knowle. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why book with us
- No need to remove anything
- Work done at your home or business
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Fixed prices from your photos

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 is not 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 usually the cheaper route.
What happens on the day
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire 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 normally be used the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Store bottles off the tray
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
What a repair can’t fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
