Shower tray repair in Carharrack without replacing anything
We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. Whether it’s a crack across the base and a tray that flexes, we can generally put it right.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Carharrack and across Cornwall.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

How it works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, tidy-up included.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the next day.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- A tray that moves underfoot

Materials we repair
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
When to call us in Carharrack
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
Common reasons people in Carharrack contact us include:
- Damage around the waste
- A cracked shower tray
- Damage from a refit or building work
- A tray that flexes
Before you book anyone
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Different materials, different repairs
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.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
Carharrack questions
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Typically, as long as it doesn’t flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Repairing versus replacing in Carharrack
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. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
What you get with us
- We leave the room as we found it
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Colour-matched on site
- Generally one visit, start to finish
