How we handle shower tray repair in Clawton

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We’re often asked to fix a crack across the base and chips caused during fitting, across stone resin, acrylic and enamelled steel.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

What we do, step by step

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves 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.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Landlords, agents and businesses in Clawton

Rental properties take more wear, 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. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new shower tray usually means removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and tiling again. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Clawton: your questions answered

What does shower tray repair cost?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed price, usually with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

How long before I can shower?

Generally the next day. We will confirm before we leave.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Check the seal every few months

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
