Shower tray repair at your home in Sourton
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 repair lasts. We’re frequently asked to fix a crack across the base and scratches from cleaning or grit, on cast iron, stone resin and acrylic.

What else we do in Sourton
How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
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.

The process
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the day after.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know about parking or access
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
What a repair can’t fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Trays cracked in several places
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Sourton
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Usually, as long as it does not flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Do you cover the entire of Devon?
The entire UK, including all of Devon. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Builders use us to fix snagging 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 to keep costs down.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Sourton

The most common problems we are called about are:
- Chipped corners or rims
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
What your quote should include
