How it works
You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Your questions about shower tray repair in Coombe
When can I use the shower again?
We’ll give you the curing time on the day.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you cover Coombe?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Coombe from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
When to call us in Coombe
Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, typically on the edges or near the plughole.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Damage around the waste
- Chips on the edges
What your quote should include
- Who will actually do the work
- How the colour is matched
- What prep work is covered
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
What we cannot put right
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Landlord and trade work in Coombe
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Why repair rather than replace?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
