Shower tray repair at your home in Walkhampton
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. Whether it’s snagging damage in a new bathroom and a tray that flexes, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Your questions about shower tray repair in Walkhampton
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Normally, as long as it does not flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.
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 it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Common problems we fix in Walkhampton
Rigid trays do not bend, they crack if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Common reasons people in Walkhampton contact us include:
- Chipped corners or rims
- A cracked shower tray
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- A tray that flexes
Questions to ask before you book
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How to care for the finish
- How the room is protected while they work

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Rinse away soap after showering
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Walkhampton use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
What a repair cannot fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Leaking waste fittings
- Multiple cracks across the tray
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic

The process
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- 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.
- It’s left to cure, typically until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
