Shower Tray Repair in Dawlish
Fixed-price shower tray repair in Dawlish and the surrounding area, typically in one visit.
- Repairs from £95
- Movement when you stand on it
- Staining and dullness across the tray
How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Get a moving tray checked
- Store bottles off the tray

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.
Shower tray repair in Dawlish without replacing anything
The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll tell you if that is the case. We work on stone resin, cast iron and ceramic, and common reasons people contact us are chips on the edges and a dull, stained or worn surface.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can I fix it myself?
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 usually the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
FAQs for Dawlish

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Do you cover Dawlish?
We do. We send a technician to Dawlish for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
