About our shower tray repair in Cove
We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We will tell you if that’s the case. Our technicians work on acrylic, enamelled steel and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are a dull, stained or worn surface and a crack across the base.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hampshire.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What we do, step by step
You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice
Cove questions
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Typically, as long as it doesn’t flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do you cover the whole of Hampshire?
All of Hampshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
How much does shower tray repair cost in Cove?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your GU14 postcode.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Repairing versus replacing in Cove
Replacing a tray typically means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Why book with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- One price list for the whole UK
- Free fixed quotes from pictures

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
When to call us in Cove
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Chipped corners or rims
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
