- Repairs from £95
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Damage around the waste
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Shower tray repair at your home in Hele
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles aren’t disturbed. Typical jobs include damage from a refit or building work and damage around the waste, across ceramic, enamelled steel and cast iron.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

What we’re called out for in Hele
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Movement when you stand on it
- Damage from a refit or building work
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether they match the colour on site
- When it can be used again
- What aftercare is recommended
- If travel is included in the price
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Use the extractor fan
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
How the visit works
You do not need to empty the room. 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 the day to resurface the whole tray, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, normally until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear the area around the damage

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
- A photo taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your EX5 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Hele
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Devon.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
How long does it take to cure?
Usually the following day. We will confirm before we leave.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
