Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Shower tray repair at your home in Roundswell
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack does not come back. Whether it’s a dull, stained or worn surface and snagging damage in a new bathroom, we can help, whatever the material.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
- Access to the area
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Your questions about shower tray repair in Roundswell
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish without removing it.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
How long before I can shower?
We will give you the curing time on the day, normally the next day.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Devon. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Are there extra charges for Roundswell?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

What a repair cannot fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
For anyone letting property in or around Roundswell, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
How the visit works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Ask for a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
