Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Common questions in Cosby
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Do you work in Cosby?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Cosby from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Cosby
Dull and stained trays are normally down to cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale strip the surface finish.
Clients generally contact us about:
- Scratches in the surface
- Damage around the waste
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Chipped corners or rims
Before booking anyone
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Who will actually do the work
- Aftercare advice
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
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.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Why repair rather than replace?
The tray is normally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why Cosby clients choose us
- One visit for most repairs
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
