How the visit works
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, you can use the shower.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Store bottles off the tray
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Cottam
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Lancashire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
FAQs for Cottam
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
What areas do you cover?
The whole UK, including all of Lancashire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Cottam?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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.
Should you replace it?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Cottam. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
