Shower tray repair in Upper Swainswick without replacing anything
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. If you have a cracked shower tray and damage around the waste, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
In a village like Upper Swainswick, many shower trays are in cottages and barn conversions, where floors may be timber. We check the tray is solid before repairing a crack.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tray generally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that and costs far less. In an older home in a village like Upper Swainswick, replacing a shower tray can be harder than it sounds: original pieces may not match modern sizes, and access can be awkward. Repairing avoids those problems.
Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Common problems we fix in Upper Swainswick
Heavy bottles, shower heads and dropped razors chip trays, generally along the edges or by the waste.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Damage from a refit or building work
- A cracked shower tray
We also work for schools, leisure centres and businesses, so if you look after a building such as Swainswick CofE Primary School, changing-room showers can be repaired in place too.
Questions to ask before booking
- Who will actually do the work
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What prep work is covered
- Whether they match the colour on site
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
Upper Swainswick: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords with property near Bath Spa station?
Of course: photos and an address are all we need for a price, and we can arrange access with the tenant if that helps.
Will you travel to Upper Swainswick?
Of course; we work in small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking when you book.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
How long before I can shower?
You’ll get the exact time when we finish, normally the day after.

Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Bath and North East Somerset and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on. Somewhere as small as Upper Swainswick, access is usually the main thing to plan. Once we are there, the shower tray repair works exactly as anywhere else.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the next day.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
