About our shower tray repair in Redtye
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched. We regularly repair enamelled steel, stone resin and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are chipped corners or rims and cracks running from the waste.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

What happens on the day
We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- 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 whole tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Redtye. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Repairing versus replacing in Redtye
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- No extra charge for your area
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
See our prices page.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Redtye
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Movement when you stand on it
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Chips caused during fitting

Redtye questions
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Cornwall.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Redtye use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
For anyone letting property in or around Redtye, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- A tray broken in more than one place
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
