Shower tray repair for Coldwaltham homes

Shower tray repair in Coldwaltham, done in place

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack doesn’t come back. We regularly repair enamelled steel, ceramic and stone resin, and the jobs we see most are chips caused during fitting and chips on the edges.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Why repair rather than replace?

The tray is typically the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why book with us

  • Colour-matched on site
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We leave the room as we found it

What we do, step by step

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Check the seal every few months

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

Coldwaltham: your questions answered

Do you work in Coldwaltham?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Coldwaltham for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Coldwaltham. The price comes down to:

  • The material
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Coldwaltham. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your RH20 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

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.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

What a repair can’t fix

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Common problems we fix in Coldwaltham

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.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A tray that flexes
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Damage around the waste
  • A cracked shower tray

Before booking anyone

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Who turns up on the day
