Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces are all things we fix in place. We’re frequently asked to fix a crack across the base and chips on the edges, on stone resin, cast iron and enamelled steel.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

How it works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Related advice

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • One visit for most repairs
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Take a look at our full price list.

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Common questions in Bathway

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

When can I use the shower again?

Typically the day after. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Do you work in Bathway?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Bathway from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Somerset, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Do you need shower tray repair in Bathway?

Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, typically on the edges or near the plughole.

The things clients generally mention when they call are:

  • Chips on the edges
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • A damaged area around the waste

Questions to ask before booking

  • If travel is included in the price
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How to care for the finish
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

Choosing a repair company

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. 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.

What affects the price in Bathway

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Bathway. What changes the price is:

  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
