Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Cock Clarks. The price reflects:

  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

Honest limits

We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Landlord and trade work in Cock Clarks

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs 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 items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Our hiring checklist

How the visit works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Common questions in Cock Clarks

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

What happens after I send pictures?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, so Cock Clarks is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
