How we handle shower tray repair in Backwell Common
A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. If you are dealing with scratches from cleaning or grit and chips on the edges, we can help, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Use the extractor fan
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

What affects the price in Backwell Common

- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage

Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- Something in shot to show the size

What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Related advice
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
What we cannot put right
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Trays cracked in several places
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
