Questions from Lowertown-by-Helston
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
Do you cover the entire of Cornwall?
We cover the whole UK, including Lowertown-by-Helston and the rest of Cornwall. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Common problems we fix in Lowertown-by-Helston

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Scratches from cleaning or grit

Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Cornwall and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Why book with us
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- One visit for most repairs
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- No extra charge for your area

Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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 typically the cheaper route.
