Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Check the seal every few months
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
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 Hengrove, done in place
We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles aren’t disturbed. If you are dealing with chips or cracks by the plughole and snagging damage in a new bathroom, we can generally put it right, on acrylic, cast iron and ceramic alike.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Hengrove as everywhere else we work.

Common problems we fix in Hengrove
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks generally point to an uneven base.
Common reasons people in Hengrove contact us are:
- Movement when you stand on it
- A crack across the base
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Scratches in the surface
What your quote should include

- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, typically until the day after.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

When a repair is not the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Enamelled steel
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Stone resin

What else we do in Hengrove
Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Your questions about shower tray repair in Hengrove
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 won’t last.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
