Landlord and trade work in Buck's Cross
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
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 is easier on the people living there.
Shower tray repair at your home in Buck's Cross
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. We regularly repair acrylic, ceramic and cast iron, and common reasons people get in touch are chips on the edges and a crack across the base.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Buck's Cross and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Buck's Cross
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.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Damage around the waste
- Cracks running from the waste
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
