Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Gloucestershire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
How we handle shower tray repair in Coleford
Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces are all things we fix in place. We regularly repair stone resin, acrylic and ceramic, and people most often call us about chips on the edges and a crack across the base.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Questions from Coleford
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Generally, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What we are called out for in Coleford
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips usually come from dropped bottles.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Movement when you stand on it
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Damage around the waste
- Chipped corners or rims
Before you book anyone
- How the colour is matched
- Who turns up on the day
- If travel is included in the price
- What happens if they find more damage
Repair or replace in Coleford?
Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Why us?
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Coleford. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Coleford. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your GL16 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the following day.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
