How we handle shower tray repair in Potters Green
You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can usually be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. We are frequently asked to fix damage from a refit or building work and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, on ceramic, acrylic and cast iron.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully 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.
Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Potters Green, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Coventry and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Repair or replace in Potters Green?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send pictures for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- Details of any past repairs
