Common questions in Mary Tavy
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Mary Tavy.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
We would stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
What you get with us
- A fixed quote before booking
- Nothing taken out or refitted

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
When to call us in Mary Tavy
Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Chips usually come from dropped bottles.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Movement when you stand on it
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Chipped corners or rims
- Scuffs and light scratches
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What aftercare is recommended
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- How long it needs to cure

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
