Trusted shower tray repair in Cop Street

How to look after the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Check the seal every few months

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

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

About our shower tray repair in Cop Street

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

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 is not prepared the repair will not last.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

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

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Cop Street. The price reflects:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

When we’d advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

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

Materials we repair

  • Enamelled steel
  • Ceramic

Cop Street questions

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

How long before I can shower?

Normally by the following day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

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

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
