Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Shower tray repair at your home in Monkleigh
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. If you’re dealing with damage from a refit or building work and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, we can usually put it right, on cast iron, acrylic and enamelled steel alike.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What else we do in Monkleigh
How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the next day.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Open a window if you can
Ask for a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Questions from Monkleigh
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish without removing it.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
How long before I can shower?
Normally the day after. We’ll confirm before we leave.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Devon.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Generally, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
