Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Upper Stoke

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Upper Stoke questions

Do you cover the entire of Coventry?

All of Coventry, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Store bottles off the tray

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Access to the area

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Honest limits

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

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

What we work on

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

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Acrylic

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

Signs you need shower tray repair in Upper Stoke

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks generally point to an uneven base.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Scratches in the surface
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Chips on the edges

Questions to ask before you book

  • How soon you can use it again
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Aftercare advice

How it works

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, you can use the shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
