About our shower tray repair in Mousehole
Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes are all things we fix in place. If you are dealing with chips caused during fitting and scratches in the surface, we can normally put it right, on cast iron, enamelled steel and ceramic alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Use the extractor fan
- Report any creaking or movement early
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Common problems we fix in Mousehole

Landlord and trade work in Mousehole
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Mousehole use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Mousehole. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Open a window if you can
Getting a price
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your TR19 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
