How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • How many areas need work
  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

When we would advise against a repair

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

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

Materials we repair

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

Signs you need shower tray repair in Coldfair Green

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.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Scuffs and light scratches

What to look for in a quote

  • How to look after the finish
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Why repair rather than replace?

The tray is typically the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • No extra charge for your area

FAQs for Coldfair Green

How long does it take to cure?

We’ll give you the curing time on the day, usually the following day.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Frequently. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Do you cover the entire of Suffolk?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Coldfair Green. Prices do not change with location.

How do I book?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

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

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

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

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Coldfair Green use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
