FAQs for Colburn

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish.

Shower tray repair in Colburn, done in place
A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. Whether it’s damage from a refit or building work and staining and dullness across the tray, we can help, whatever the material.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Get a moving tray checked
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

What else we do in Colburn
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why book with us
- Everything repaired in place
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- No extra charge for your area
- Normally one visit, start to finish
See our prices page.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Colburn. The price comes down to:
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What a repair cannot fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Trays cracked in several places
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, generally until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear the area around the damage
Getting a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
