Shower tray repair & resurfacing in Nythe, Swindon
Fixed-price shower tray repair in Nythe and the surrounding area, usually in one visit.
- Repairs from £95
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
About our shower tray repair in Nythe
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. Whether it’s snagging damage in a new bathroom and scratches from cleaning or grit, we can usually put it right.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

What happens on the day
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the day after.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know which floor the room is on
How to get a price

What we’re called out for in Nythe
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks generally point to an uneven base.
Look out for any of the following:
- A damaged area around the waste
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Chips on the edges
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
What to look for in a quote
- How long it needs to cure
- What prep work is covered
- Who will actually do the work
- How your room will be protected
When a repair is not the answer
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- A tray that moves underfoot

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Repairing versus replacing in Nythe
A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- No need to remove anything
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

How much does shower tray repair cost in Nythe?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Nythe. Prices do not change with location.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
