What else we do in Frampton Cotterell
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Ensure the area is dry
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Frampton Cotterell: your questions answered
Do you reseal the tray as well?
We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
When can I use the shower again?
You will get the exact time when we finish.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
Do you need shower tray repair in Frampton Cotterell?
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Scratches in the surface
- Cracks running from the waste
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
What your quote should include
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- When it can be used again
- What aftercare is recommended
- How changes to the job are handled
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
Set against the cost of replacement, 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.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
Should you replace it?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is usually best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Rinse away soap after showering
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.
What a repair can’t fix
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
