What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Why repair rather than replace?

The tray is generally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Coalway

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Typically, as long as it does not flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Do you cover Coalway?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Coalway and the rest of Gloucestershire. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

How long before I can shower?

Normally by the following day. We’ll confirm before we leave.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

What affects the price in Coalway

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Coalway. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Acrylic
  • Cast iron
  • Enamelled steel
  • Ceramic
  • Stone resin

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Related advice

What we are called out for in Coalway

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A tray that flexes
  • A crack across the base
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • A damaged area around the waste

What your quote should include

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Aftercare advice
