How we handle shower tray repair in Cold Ashton

A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Whether it’s chips caused during fitting and scratches from cleaning or grit, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How the visit works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the following day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

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.

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cold Ashton as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Cold Ashton questions

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Usually, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Will you leave a mess?

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

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

How long before I can shower?

You’ll get the exact time when we finish, generally the following day.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

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

What your shower tray is made of matters

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

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

How we price shower tray repair

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

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match

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

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any details about the material
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
