Shower tray repair at your home in Cottingham
The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We will tell you if that is the case. Common call-outs are for a dull, stained or worn surface and chips or cracks by the plughole, on stone resin, ceramic and enamelled steel.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Repair or replace in Cottingham?
Replacing a tray usually means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that and costs far less. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

- One-year guarantee on every repair
- A fixed quote before booking
- We leave the room as we found it
Take a look at our pricing.
What affects the price in Cottingham
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the whole shower tray
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Get a moving tray checked
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
