Shower tray repair in Newton Downs without replacing anything
The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We will tell you if that’s the case. If you’re dealing with chips or cracks by the plughole and movement when you stand on it, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Newton Downs and across Devon.

The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, tidy-up included.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Questions from Newton Downs
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, and that includes Newton Downs. Prices don’t change with location.
Do you cover Newton Downs?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Newton Downs from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Newton Downs
For anyone letting property in or around Newton Downs, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Rinse away soap after showering
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
