Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces are all things we fix in place.

Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

  • Ceramic
  • Acrylic
  • Cast iron
  • Enamelled steel
  • Stone resin

Grampound Road questions

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you cover the whole of Cornwall?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Grampound Road. Prices don’t change with location.

How long does it take to cure?

Normally by the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Should you replace it?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

The process

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Open a window if you can

How to compare quotes

Landlords, agents and businesses in Grampound Road

For anyone letting property in or around Grampound Road, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
