Shower tray repair in Bainton without replacing anything
The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We will tell you if that’s the case. We are often asked to fix scuffs and light scratches and a crack across the base, in stone resin, enamelled steel and ceramic.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can

When we would advise against a repair

- Leaking waste fittings
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Trays cracked in several places
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Bainton. The price comes down to:
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One picture of the entire shower tray
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
When to call us in Bainton
Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
Look out for any of the following:
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- A damaged area around the waste
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Landlord and trade work in Bainton
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Rinse away soap after showering
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
FAQs for Bainton
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
