Shower tray repair & resurfacing in Coventry
We travel to Coventry for shower tray chip, crack and scratch repairs and resurfacing. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Repairs from £95
- A crack across the base
- Damage around the waste
What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself 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 ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, typically by the next day, you can use the shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Shower tray repair at your home in Coventry
The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll tell you if that is the case. We work on cast iron, acrylic and ceramic, and people most frequently call us about a tray that flexes and scuffs and light scratches.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What affects the price in Coventry
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A picture taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tray typically means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Coventry. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

FAQs for Coventry
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Check the seal every few months
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Coventry
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Coventry use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
