Shower tray repair at your home in West Alvington
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack does not come back. Common call-outs are for staining and dullness across the tray and chips or cracks by the plughole, in acrylic, enamelled steel and cast iron.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in West Alvington and across Devon.

Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in West Alvington 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 use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

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.

Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Use the extractor fan
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
When to call us in West Alvington
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
People generally call us when they notice one of these:
- Damage around the waste
- A crack across the base
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
Questions to ask before booking
- Who turns up on the day
- If travel is included in the price
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What prep work is covered

How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from photos
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
