How we handle shower tray repair in Redruth
We repair plenty of shower trays. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes can all be put right without removing the tray. We regularly repair cast iron, ceramic and stone resin, and common reasons people contact us are a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and chips or cracks by the plughole.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
For anyone letting property in or around Redruth, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
What we can’t put right
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Leaking waste fittings
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin

Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Ventilate the room after showers
Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What affects the price in Redruth
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Redruth: your questions answered
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Do you redo the sealant?
We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
How long before I can shower?
You will get the exact time when we finish.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.

- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Getting ready for the visit
