Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Check the seal every few months
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.
Shower tray repair in Bearwood, done in place
The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We will tell you if that’s the case. Our repair technicians work on cast iron, stone resin and enamelled steel, and people most often call us about chips on the edges and chips caused during fitting.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Bearwood questions
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Covering Bearwood

Here we cover the BH11 postcode area. That includes homes on King John Avenue, Charter Road and King John Close. Bearwood sits on or near the A341, so getting to you is simple.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Why repair rather than replace?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
