About our shower tray repair in Coalhill
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. If you are dealing with damage from a refit or building work and a cracked shower tray, we can normally put it right, on enamelled steel, ceramic and stone resin alike.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Essex and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
When we’d advise against a repair
We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Trays cracked in several places
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
- Stone resin

How the visit 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 work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- 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.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the following day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Use the extractor fan
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Store bottles off the tray
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

Coalhill: your questions answered
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you come to Coalhill?
We do. We send a technician to Coalhill for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
How long before I can shower?
You will get the exact time when we finish.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
