Shower tray repair in Ash Cross, done in place
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll explain what we find. We work on stone resin, enamelled steel and cast iron, and people most frequently call us about damage around the waste and movement when you stand on it.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Questions from Ash Cross
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Devon, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.
Do you come to Ash Cross?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Ash Cross and the rest of Devon. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Usually, as long as it doesn’t flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Ash Cross
For anyone letting property in or around Ash Cross, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Make sure the area is dry
- Let us know about parking or access
How to get a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

- A crack across the base
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Damage from a refit or building work
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- What aftercare is recommended
- What prep work is covered
What we cannot put right
We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Leaking waste fittings
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
