When to call us in Upper Coxley

Shower tray repair in Upper Coxley without replacing anything

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. We are frequently asked to fix scratches in the surface and damage around the waste, across enamelled steel, acrylic and cast iron.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Related advice

When we would advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Trays cracked in several places

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Enamelled steel
  • Cast iron
  • Acrylic
  • Ceramic
  • Stone resin

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

FAQs for Upper Coxley

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Are there extra charges for Upper Coxley?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
