Can I keep using a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

How we handle shower tray repair in Goonbell

The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We will tell you if that’s the case. We work on stone resin, ceramic and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are chips or cracks by the plughole and edge chips from dropped bottles.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cornwall.

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

  • Stone resin

The process

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, typically until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How to get a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • The type of damage
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your TR5 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Landlord and trade work in Goonbell

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

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

When to call us in Goonbell

Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

Common reasons people in Goonbell contact us include:

  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • A crack across the base
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

What to look for in a quote

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Get a moving tray checked

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

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.
