About our shower tray repair in Great Torrington
A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We regularly repair ceramic, acrylic and stone resin, and common reasons people get in touch are movement when you stand on it and cracks running from the waste.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Great Torrington and across Devon.

Do you need shower tray repair in Great Torrington?
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Scratches in the surface
- Cracks running from the waste
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom

Honest limits
A repair is not right for every job, for example:

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
Your questions about shower tray repair in Great Torrington
When can I use the shower again?
We’ll give you the curing time on the day.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Great Torrington included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
What happens on the day
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, normally until the day after.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Get a moving tray checked
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.
