Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
About our shower tray repair in Team Colliery
In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched. We’re frequently asked to fix chips or cracks by the plughole and cracks running from the waste, on enamelled steel, cast iron and ceramic.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Team Colliery as everywhere else we work.

How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Check the seal every few months
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Repairing versus replacing in Team Colliery
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.

How it works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the next day.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Advice
Common problems we fix in Team Colliery
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.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Scuffs and light scratches
- A cracked shower tray
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
What to look for in a quote
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Team Colliery. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Can I fix it myself?
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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
