Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
Shower tray repair in Tamerton Foliot, done in place
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Whether it’s a crack across the base and scratches in the surface, we can normally put it right.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
What happens on the day
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tamerton Foliot use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Common questions in Tamerton Foliot
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
How long does it take to cure?
Normally by the following day. We’ll confirm before we leave.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
