Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
How we handle shower tray repair in Ashprington
We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll tell you if that is the case. If you’re dealing with a tray that flexes and snagging damage in a new bathroom, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Why repair rather than replace?
The tray is typically the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Use the extractor fan
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Store bottles off the tray
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
What we can’t put right
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Leaking waste fittings
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
When to call us in Ashprington
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.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Chips on the edges
- Cracks running from the waste
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Staining and dullness across the tray

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. 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.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
Landlord and trade work in Ashprington
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Devon and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
