Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

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

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Shower tray repair in Cogenhoe, done in place

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched. Typical jobs include edge chips from dropped bottles and a damaged area around the waste, on enamelled steel, cast iron and ceramic.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Repair or replace in Cogenhoe?

A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that, at a fraction of the cost. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Your questions about shower tray repair in Cogenhoe

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, 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.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Do you need shower tray repair in Cogenhoe?

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

The things clients usually mention when they call are:

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

What your quote should include

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What prep work is covered
  • Who will actually do the work

Our hiring checklist

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Honest limits

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

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray broken in more than one place

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
