The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, generally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit

- Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your TR19 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

About our shower tray repair in Drift
You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We work on ceramic, cast iron and stone resin, and the jobs we see most are a tray that flexes and snagging damage in a new bathroom.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Drift and across Cornwall.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Use the extractor fan
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.
Repairing versus replacing in Drift
A new shower tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Common questions in Drift
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Only if you’re sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Do you cover the whole of Cornwall?
We cover the whole UK, including Drift and the rest of Cornwall. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What else we do in Drift
What we’re called out for in Drift
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Common reasons people in Drift contact us include:
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- A crack across the base
- A tray that flexes
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Aftercare advice
- If travel is included in the price
What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Trays cracked in several places
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
