Trusted shower tray repair in Fairy Cross

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

About our shower tray repair in Fairy Cross

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. Whether it’s staining and dullness across the tray and a crack across the base, we can normally put it right, on enamelled steel, stone resin and ceramic alike.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Landlord and trade work in Fairy Cross

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Fairy Cross use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

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.

Fairy Cross: your questions answered

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Normally, as long as it doesn’t flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

What we are called out for in Fairy Cross

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.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Chips on the edges
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Damage from a refit or building work

What your quote should include

  • When it can be used again
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How to look after the finish
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

10 questions to ask before booking

How to look after the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Fairy Cross. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs

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

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
