How we handle shower tray repair in Mawgan Porth
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack does not come back. Common call-outs are for scuffs and light scratches and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, on stone resin, ceramic and cast iron.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Mawgan Porth questions
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Typically, as long as it doesn’t flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
How long before I can shower?
You’ll get the exact time when we finish, typically the day after.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Mawgan Porth. The price comes down to:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
If you are in Mawgan Porth and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a tray generally means removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Mawgan Porth. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Trays cracked in several places
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we work on in Mawgan Porth
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
Do you need shower tray repair in Mawgan Porth?
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks normally point to an uneven base.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Movement when you stand on it
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- A crack across the base
- Chips caused during fitting

What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
