About shower tray repair in Plymouth

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. Our technicians work on enamelled steel, ceramic and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are snagging damage in a new bathroom and a tray that flexes.

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 for a repair, longer for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the following day.

What it costs in Plymouth

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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray broken in more than one place

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage
  • Doing more than one item at once

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your photos

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know

If you are in Plymouth and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What we are called out for in Plymouth

A tired-looking tray is frequently the result of years of cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads wear the finish away.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • Chips on the edges
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom

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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

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.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

FAQs for Plymouth

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

How long before I can shower?

We will give you the curing time on the day, usually the next day.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Often. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

How do I book?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
