Shower tray repair near Brayford

The process

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

About our shower tray repair in Brayford

If the whole tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish. Our repair technicians work on stone resin, cast iron and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are damage around the waste and chips caused during fitting.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Honest limits

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What we work on

  • Ceramic
  • Acrylic
  • Enamelled steel
  • Cast iron
  • Stone resin

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your EX32 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

When to call us in Brayford

A tired-looking tray is often the result of years of 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
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Staining and dullness across the tray

What to look for in a quote

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • What prep work is covered

10 questions to ask before you book

Brayford questions

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. Look for damp or stains below.

Do you cover Brayford?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Brayford from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Brayford and the rest of Devon. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
