Shower tray repair at your home in Chittlehampton
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 crack doesn’t come back. We are frequently asked to fix a dull, stained or worn surface and a damaged area around the waste, on enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Chittlehampton
How much does shower tray repair cost in Chittlehampton?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Do you cover the whole of Devon?
All of Devon, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What we are called out for in Chittlehampton
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Chips on the edges
- Damage around the waste
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
What to look for in a quote
- How your room will be protected
- How the colour is matched
- If travel is included in the price
- Who will actually do the work
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What happens on the day
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Advice
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Details of any past repairs
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For anyone letting property in or around Chittlehampton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
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 heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Honest limits
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
