Shower tray repair in Coronation, done in place
The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We will tell you if that is the case. Typical jobs include scratches from cleaning or grit and damage from a refit or building work, across acrylic, cast iron and ceramic.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Coronation: your questions answered
Do you cover Coronation?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Coronation for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Most customers in Coronation get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What else we do in Coronation
Do you need shower tray repair in Coronation?
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks typically point to an uneven base.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- A cracked shower tray
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- A damaged area around the waste
Before you book anyone
- Who turns up on the day
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What aftercare is recommended
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents frequently send us photos 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.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
How it works
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know which floor the room is on
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
