DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Whiteway questions
Do you cover the whole of Bristol?
Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
How long before I can shower?
Generally the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Landlord and trade work in Whiteway
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Common problems we fix in Whiteway
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- A tray that flexes
- Cracks running from the waste
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
Questions to ask before you book
- What happens if they find more damage
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How soon you can use it again
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Trays cracked in several places
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Whiteway
- Enamelled steel
- Cast iron

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Whiteway. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Whiteway. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
What happens on the day
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
