About our shower tray repair in Harcombe
Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes can all be put right without removing the tray. Whether it’s a tray that flexes and staining and dullness across the tray, we can normally put it right, on enamelled steel, acrylic and cast iron alike.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Harcombe
Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Chips usually come from dropped bottles.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Chips on the edges
- A crack across the base
- A damaged area around the waste
- A dull, stained or worn surface
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How long it needs to cure
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How to care for the finish
Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Check the seal every few months
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is typically best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

- Colour-matched on site
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Fixed prices from your photos

Harcombe: your questions answered
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of Devon. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Usually, if the tray is firmly supported. 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 we agree with you.
What we do, step by step
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have a window or extractor fan available

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
