Shower tray repair in Budleigh Salterton, done in place
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. Typical jobs include a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and a dull, stained or worn surface, across ceramic, acrylic and enamelled steel.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Check the seal every few months
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
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, and the damage below isn’t visible.
Repairing versus replacing in Budleigh Salterton
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Budleigh Salterton. The price reflects:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
If you’re in Budleigh Salterton and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
