Shower tray repair for Falmouth homes

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Falmouth. The price depends on:

  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

How we handle shower tray repair in Falmouth

You do not always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Common call-outs are for chipped corners or rims and movement when you stand on it, in cast iron, enamelled steel and ceramic.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Trays cracked in several places

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Falmouth. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

See our pricing.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.

The process

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice

Questions from Falmouth

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Falmouth

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
