Shower tray repair at your home in Coychurch
In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. Typical jobs include a crack across the base and a damaged area around the waste, across stone resin, cast iron and enamelled steel.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

What a repair cannot fix
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Trays cracked in several places
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.
How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- 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.
- It’s left to cure, generally until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Ensure the area is dry
How to get a price
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 over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Do you need shower tray repair in Coychurch?
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks generally point to an uneven base.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- A cracked shower tray
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
What your quote should include
- What happens if they find more damage
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

What else we do in Coychurch
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
