About our shower tray repair in Bradwell
Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces can all be put right without removing the tray. Our repair technicians work on acrylic, enamelled steel and ceramic, and common reasons people contact us are edge chips from dropped bottles and chips or cracks by the plughole.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How it works
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, normally until the next day.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Ask for a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Common problems we fix in Bradwell
Dull and stained trays are normally down to cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale strip the surface finish.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- A crack across the base
- A damaged area around the waste
- Chipped corners or rims
What to look for in a quote
- Who will actually do the work
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How your room will be protected
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Devon and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Repairing versus replacing in Bradwell
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Questions from Bradwell
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Bradwell. Prices do not change with location.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Bradwell?
