Questions from Bara

Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Check the seal every few months
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.

When to call us in Bara
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Chips on the edges
- A crack across the base
What your quote should include

- What happens if they find more damage
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
The process
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 in most cases. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- Once cured, generally by the day after, you can use the shower.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
What affects the price in Bara
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Repairing versus replacing in Bara
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is usually best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
What you get with us
- A fixed quote before booking
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Everything repaired in place
- Rooms protected and left tidy

Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
