Shower tray repair in Kilkhampton, done in place
You do not 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. Our repair technicians work on ceramic, acrylic and cast iron, and common reasons people contact us are a crack across the base and chips or cracks by the plughole.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- A damaged area around the waste

Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
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.
Common questions in Kilkhampton
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
When can I use the shower again?
We will give you the curing time on the day.
What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Advice
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
What a repair can’t fix
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Leaking waste fittings
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Multiple cracks across the tray
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Kilkhampton. The price reflects:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
