How we handle shower tray repair in Coryton
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that is the case. We’re often asked to fix chipped corners or rims and a crack across the base, in ceramic, enamelled steel and cast iron.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
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. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Coryton
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Scuffs and light scratches
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Edge chips from dropped bottles

Landlords, agents and businesses in Coryton
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
If you manage property in Coryton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, typically by the following day, you can use the shower.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
