Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
What happens on the day
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, including clearing up.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, typically until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price

Related advice
Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Do you need shower tray repair in Brigsteer?
Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, generally along the edges or by the waste.

When a repair is not the answer
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
