Shower tray repair in Shaw without replacing anything
We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. Nothing is taken out, so the enclosure and tiles aren’t disturbed. We regularly repair enamelled steel, cast iron and stone resin, and common reasons people contact us are damage from a refit or building work and edge chips from dropped bottles.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Shaw and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What we are called out for in Shaw
The waste is a common starting point for cracks, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- A tray that flexes
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Damage around the waste
Before booking anyone

- Whether the colour is mixed to match

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 is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Swindon and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Shaw and the surrounding area
Shaw is about 2 miles west of Swindon, in Swindon. Customers in Shaw get the same service as everywhere else we cover: a fixed quote from pictures, then a visit to do the work. Shaw is one of 68 places in Swindon where we work. We work right across the region, from Shaw to Birmingham (about 62 miles away).
Our visits in SN5 and SN38 are booked in the same way as anywhere else. We regularly work on streets such as Shaw Road, Pearl Road and Camton Road. We also travel to Freshbrook (1 mile south), Lydiard Millicent (1 mile west), Toothill (1 mile south-east), Lydiard Tregoze (1 mile south-west) and South Leaze (2 miles south-east). Further out, we also cover Stratton St Margaret (4 miles east), Royal Wootton Bassett (3 miles south-west), Wroughton (4 miles south-east), Upper Stratton (3 miles north-east), Dorcan (5 miles east) and Highworth (7 miles north-east). Being one of Swindon’s larger places, Shaw sees plenty of our work.
What’s near Shaw
We visit homes around Lydiard Park Academy, Brook Field Primary School and Holy Trinity. The nearest railway station is Swindon station, about 2.2 miles east. Further afield, we also cover the area around Rodbourne Cheney (2 miles east) and Princess Margaret Hospital (2 miles south-east).
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Get a moving tray checked
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
What else we do in Shaw
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Leaking waste fittings
- Multiple cracks across the tray
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

How it works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, usually by the following day, you can use the shower.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

What affects the price in Shaw
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Shaw. What changes the price is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A picture taken from further back
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
