Your questions about shower tray repair in South Zeal
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Usually, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
We would stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including South Zeal and the rest of Devon. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
About our shower tray repair in South Zeal
The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We will explain what we find. If you are dealing with a tray that flexes and a dull, stained or worn surface, we can help.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

What affects the price in South Zeal
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
Getting a price from photos
Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can price the job without visiting.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Check the seal every few months
- Store bottles off the tray
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
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.
How it works
We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price

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 early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Leaking waste fittings
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
