How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Related advice
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.

Do you need shower tray repair in Bottoms?
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips normally come from dropped bottles.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Chipped corners or rims
- Damage from a refit or building work
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- A crack across the base
Before you book anyone
- How the colour is matched
- How to care for the finish
- Who will actually do the work
- How soon you can use it again
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
Repairing versus replacing in Bottoms
Replacing a tray generally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that and costs far less. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
Why us?
- Colour-matched on site
- Generally one visit, start to finish
