Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Do you need shower tray repair in Raymond's Hill?

A tired-looking tray is frequently the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale wear the finish away.

Common reasons people in Raymond's Hill contact us are:

  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Chips on the edges
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

10 questions to ask before booking

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray broken in more than one place

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Stone resin
  • Cast iron
  • Enamelled steel
  • Ceramic
  • Acrylic

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Advice

Common questions in Raymond's Hill

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Devon.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

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.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

What affects the price in Raymond's Hill

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Repairing versus replacing in Raymond's Hill

Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
