When a repair isn’t the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Colton Lane End: your questions answered

What do you need from me?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Usually, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Do you redo the sealant?

We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tray usually means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Choosing a repair company

How it works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, tidy-up included.

  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. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Ask for a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Advice

How to look after the repair

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

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