DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.

Advice
How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Get a moving tray checked
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
Do you need shower tray repair in Little Bentley?
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
The things clients typically mention when they call include:
- A tray that flexes
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Cracks running from the waste

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
