The process
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit

Landlords, agents and businesses in Wyken
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Wyken
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
When can I use the shower again?
We will give you the curing time on the day, typically the next day.
Do you cover the entire of Coventry?
All of Coventry, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Wyken?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A picture taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
What we’re called out for in Wyken
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- A tray that flexes
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Damage from a refit or building work
Before you book anyone
- What happens if they find more damage
- Who will actually do the work
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
Repair or replace in Wyken?
Replacing a tray usually means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched and costs far less. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

- Stone resin
What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
