Landlords, agents and businesses in Whimble
For anyone letting property in or around Whimble, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Shower tray repair in Whimble, done in place
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. Typical jobs include a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and scratches from cleaning or grit, on cast iron, stone resin and enamelled steel.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Store bottles off the tray
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
Your questions about shower tray repair in Whimble
How much does shower tray repair cost in Whimble?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
When can I use the shower again?
You will get the exact time when we finish, generally the day after.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Devon, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.
What a repair can’t fix
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What affects the price in Whimble
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- A photo taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Why repair rather than replace?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
What happens on the day
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- Once cured, usually by the day after, you can use the shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
