Shower tray repair in Covington without replacing anything
In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. Our repair technicians work on ceramic, stone resin and cast iron, and people most often call us about damage around the waste and scratches in the surface.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
Do you need shower tray repair in Covington?
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Scratches in the surface
- Cracks running from the waste
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Chips or cracks by the plughole

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Questions from Covington
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Normally, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, generally by the following day, you can use the shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
