How we handle shower tray repair in Ludgvan
A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. Our technicians work on enamelled steel, ceramic and acrylic, and people most frequently call us about a dull, stained or worn surface and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Ludgvan and across Cornwall.

Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Store bottles off the tray
- Check the seal every few months
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A cracked shower tray
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Chips on the edges

Ludgvan: your questions answered
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do you work in Ludgvan?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Ludgvan from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Work for landlords and builders
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cornwall and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
When we’d advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
Repairing versus replacing in Ludgvan
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why us?
- Same prices wherever you are
- Colour-matched on site
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- A year’s guarantee on all work

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
