Shower tray repair in Rilla Mill without replacing anything
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. If you’re dealing with damage from a refit or building work and a crack across the base, we can help, on enamelled steel, acrylic and stone resin alike.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Common questions in Rilla Mill
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do you come to Rilla Mill?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Rilla Mill and the rest of Cornwall. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
How it works
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, normally until the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear the area around the damage
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice
How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Use the extractor fan
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive 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.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Rilla Mill
Cracks often start at the waste, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.
People typically call us after spotting one of these:
- Scratches in the surface
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- A damaged area around the waste
- A tray that flexes

Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
