Should you replace it?
Replacing a tray generally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that and costs far less. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What we cannot put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Trays cracked in several places
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
- Enamelled steel
- Cast iron
Do you need shower tray repair in Roborough?
Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- Movement when you stand on it
- A damaged area around the waste
- Chips caused during fitting
- Chipped corners or rims

How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Use the extractor fan
- Check the seal every few months
- Rinse away soap after showering
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
How it works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the following day.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Your questions about shower tray repair in Roborough
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Plymouth, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Roborough?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Roborough.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
For landlords and businesses
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.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
