How it works
We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- 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.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Questions from Winkleigh
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
How long before I can shower?
We will give you the curing time on the day.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Common problems we fix in Winkleigh
Cracks often start at the waste, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Cracks running from the waste
- Movement when you stand on it
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Damage around the waste
Questions to ask before booking
- How the colour is matched
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether the price covers travel
- What protection goes down before work starts
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on

Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Winkleigh use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Winkleigh. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
