Shower tray repair for St Ann's Chapel homes

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Shower tray repair at your home in St Ann's Chapel

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. We regularly repair stone resin, cast iron and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are a crack across the base and scratches from cleaning or grit.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Common questions in St Ann's Chapel

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do you come to St Ann's Chapel?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to St Ann's Chapel and the rest of Devon. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Devon.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

What happens after I send photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Normally, as long as it doesn’t flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

What a repair cannot fix

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray broken in more than one place

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Enamelled steel
  • Acrylic
  • Stone resin
  • Ceramic
  • Cast iron

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Signs you need shower tray repair in St Ann's Chapel

Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

People generally call us after spotting one of these:

  • Movement when you stand on it
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Damage from a refit or building work

Before booking anyone

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Choosing a repair company

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
