How we handle shower tray repair in Gilbert's Coombe
We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles aren’t disturbed. We work on ceramic, stone resin and enamelled steel, and common reasons people contact us are a dull, stained or worn surface and scratches from cleaning or grit.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Gilbert's Coombe and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

FAQs for Gilbert's Coombe
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
How long before I can shower?
Usually the following day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed quote. You are under no obligation.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Repair or replace: which is better?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Gilbert's Coombe. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Gilbert's Coombe. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the entire shower tray
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Get a moving tray checked
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
