About our shower tray repair in Cotman's Ash
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. If you are dealing with a cracked shower tray and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, we can help.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Common questions in Cotman's Ash
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- Your postcode, so we can check dates

How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- Once cured, usually by the following day, you can use the shower.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
Landlord and trade work in Cotman's Ash
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Check the seal every few months
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
