How we handle shower tray repair in Helford Passage
The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We will tell you if that is the case. Whether it’s a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and a damaged area around the waste, we can usually put it right, on ceramic, enamelled steel and cast iron alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

When to call us in Helford Passage

Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A crack across the base
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- A damaged area around the waste
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
What your quote should include
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether the price covers travel
- Who turns up on the day
The process
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the next day.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Open a window if you can

Landlord and trade work in Helford Passage
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
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 usually the cheaper route.
