The process

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, including clearing up.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear the area around the damage

Questions from Thorne Coffin

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Do you come to Thorne Coffin?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Thorne Coffin from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Thorne Coffin

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Look out for these signs:

  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Chips caused during fitting

Questions to ask before booking

  • How the colour is matched
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How your room will be protected

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

What affects the price in Thorne Coffin

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

If you’re in Thorne Coffin and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

When a repair isn’t the answer

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Thorne Coffin as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
