Shower tray repair in Coopers

How to care for the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

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.

About our shower tray repair in Coopers

Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. We regularly repair acrylic, ceramic and enamelled steel, and people most often call us about cracks running from the waste and chips caused during fitting.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Coopers

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Coopers. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Coopers

Do you work in Coopers?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Coopers. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

How do I book?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

When to call us in Coopers

Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Chips typically come from dropped bottles.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Chips on the edges
  • Damage around the waste
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Scratches in the surface

Questions to ask before you book

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Choosing a repair company

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
