About our shower tray repair in Coldharbour

Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes can all be put right without removing the tray. We’re frequently asked to fix staining and dullness across the tray and a tray that flexes, in ceramic, acrylic and cast iron.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Do you need shower tray repair in Coldharbour?

Cracks often start at the waste, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • A cracked shower tray
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Movement when you stand on it

What your quote should include

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What preparation is included
  • How the colour is matched
  • How to look after the finish

Our hiring checklist

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Store bottles off the tray

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

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

What affects the price in Coldharbour

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

FAQs for Coldharbour

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Coldharbour?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Do you come to Coldharbour?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Coldharbour from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What we do, step by step

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  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. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
