Shower Tray Repair for Blackawton homes
Our repair technicians come to Blackawton for shower tray chip, crack and scratch repairs and resurfacing. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Repairs from £95
- Cracks running from the waste
- Chipped corners or rims
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
About our shower tray repair in Blackawton
The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll explain what we find. We work on cast iron, stone resin and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and chipped corners or rims.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Blackawton and across Devon.

Work for landlords and builders

Common problems we fix in Blackawton
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks typically point to an uneven base.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Scratches in the surface
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
What to look for in a quote
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How your room will be protected
- When it can be used again
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
What we cannot put right
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- Leaking waste fittings
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- A tray broken in more than one place

How the visit works
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, typically until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know about parking or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Store bottles off the tray
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
How long does it take to cure?
You’ll get the exact time when we finish.
Do you work in Blackawton?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Blackawton and the rest of Devon. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
We would stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from photos
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A photo taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can price the job.
