How we handle shower tray repair in Foundry
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 a dull, stained or worn surface and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, on stone resin, enamelled steel and acrylic.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cornwall.

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
When a repair isn’t the answer
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Multiple cracks across the tray
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Landlord and trade work in Foundry
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Make sure the area is dry
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Get a moving tray checked
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

What affects the price in Foundry
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Foundry. The price comes down to:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Foundry. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
