Shower Tray Repair in Madron
Fixed-price shower tray repair in Madron and the surrounding area, done in a single visit in most cases and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Chips on the edges
- A crack across the base
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Rinse the tray after each shower
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. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Common questions in Madron
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do you cover the entire of Cornwall?
The entire UK, including all of Cornwall. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Madron
- Stone resin
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Repairing versus replacing in Madron
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, you can use the shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
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.
What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Madron. The price comes down to:
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A photo taken from further back
- Any details about the material
