Shower tray repair in Westward Ho!, done in place
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 doesn’t come back. Typical jobs include chips on the edges and staining and dullness across the tray, in stone resin, acrylic and cast iron.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Common questions in Westward Ho!
Do you cover the whole of Devon?
We cover the entire UK, including Westward Ho! and the rest of Devon. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Do you need shower tray repair in Westward Ho!?
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks generally point to an uneven base.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Scuffs and light scratches
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- A damaged area around the waste

The process
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up.

- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Send photos for a quote
Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Check the seal every few months
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
