Shower tray repair in Plymtree without replacing anything

You do not always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. If you’re dealing with a cracked shower tray and snagging damage in a new bathroom, we can generally put it right, on stone resin, ceramic and enamelled steel alike.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How to care for the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Use the extractor fan

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Plymtree

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Devon and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Plymtree use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The type of damage
  • The material

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Plymtree questions

Is it safe with children and pets around?

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

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the entire UK, including Plymtree and the rest of Devon. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.

How long does it take to cure?

You will get the exact time when we finish.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Related advice

What your shower tray is made of matters

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 are filled and matched to the surface.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

What we can’t put right

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

  • Stone resin
  • Ceramic
  • Acrylic
