Trusted shower tray repair in Mid Devon

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Do you need shower tray repair in Mid Devon?

The waste is a common starting point for cracks, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

Look out for these signs:

  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • A tray that flexes
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom

Repair or replace: which is better?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Mid Devon. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Avoid strong descalers and 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.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the next day.

Advice

Common questions in Mid Devon

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your EX18 postcode.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

What we cannot put right

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Mid Devon

  • Acrylic
  • Ceramic
  • Stone resin
  • Cast iron

What affects the price in Mid Devon

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Mid Devon. The price depends on:

  • How much damage there is
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the whole shower tray

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
