How we handle shower tray repair in St Loye's

When to call us in St Loye's
Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips typically come from dropped bottles.
The things customers usually mention when they call include:
- Chips on the edges
- A damaged area around the waste
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Staining and dullness across the tray

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed price
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A picture taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Check the seal every few months
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.

When we would advise against a repair
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- 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.

Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
