About our shower tray repair in Totterdown
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that is the case. If you are dealing with edge chips from dropped bottles and a dull, stained or worn surface, we can usually put it right, on ceramic, acrylic and enamelled steel alike.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, typically until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Honest limits
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Multiple cracks across the tray

Materials we work on in Totterdown
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
- Cast iron
Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. 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.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
What we’re called out for in Totterdown
Dull and stained trays are usually down to cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads strip the surface finish.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Movement when you stand on it
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Scuffs and light scratches
- A dull, stained or worn surface

Totterdown questions
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Store bottles off the tray
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Check the seal every few months
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
