Shower tray repair in Chulmleigh, done in place
We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll explain what we find. Whether it’s chips or cracks by the plughole and movement when you stand on it, we can help, whatever the material.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Devon.

What affects the price in Chulmleigh
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the following day.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Chulmleigh as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
