Shower tray repair in Barton Hill without replacing anything
The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that is the case. Whether it’s edge chips from dropped bottles and a crack across the base, we can usually put it right, on ceramic, enamelled steel and cast iron alike.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Bristol.

Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Get a moving tray checked
- Check the seal every few months
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
Why repair rather than replace?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
What affects the price in Barton Hill
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the whole shower tray
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Questions from Barton Hill
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
