Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Collydean. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash

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

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Check the seal every few months

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Collydean

Can you fix a cracked tray?

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

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Do you come to Collydean?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Collydean and the rest of Fife. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Collydean. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Honest limits

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Trays cracked in several places

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Collydean

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
