Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, 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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

More services for Botternell
Landlord and trade work in Botternell
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Botternell use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Get a moving tray checked
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
When to call us in Botternell
Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, typically on the edges or near the plughole.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Damage around the waste
- A crack across the base
- Chips on the edges

Your questions about shower tray repair in Botternell
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
What happens on the day
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 clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Related advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tray normally means removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What a repair cannot fix

- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Multiple cracks across the tray
