Shower tray repair in Coton Clanford, done in place
A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can usually be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. Our technicians work on acrylic, cast iron and enamelled steel, and common reasons people get in touch are chips on the edges and chips or cracks by the plughole.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Signs you need shower tray repair in Coton Clanford
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Chips on the edges
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Scuffs and light scratches
Questions to ask before booking
- When it can be used again
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- How the room is protected while they work
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Leaking waste fittings
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Trays cracked in several places
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Common questions in Coton Clanford
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Staffordshire.
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Landlord and trade work in Coton Clanford
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.
Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Repair or replace: which is better?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
