Shower tray repair in South Tawton, done in place
Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes can all be put right without removing the tray. Our repair technicians work on acrylic, cast iron and ceramic, and common reasons people contact us are damage from a refit or building work and a dull, stained or worn surface.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
For developers and builders, we fix 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.
What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, tidy-up included.
- 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 match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, generally by the following day, you can use the shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice
When to call us in South Tawton
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A crack across the base
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Damage around the waste
Comparing quotes
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
When we’d advise against a repair
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
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.
