DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Common problems we fix in Rinsey
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Damage around the waste
- A cracked shower tray
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- A tray that flexes
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How the colour is matched
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

What else we do in Rinsey
What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
When a repair is not the answer
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Trays cracked in several places
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we repair
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a tray normally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Rinsey: your questions answered
Do you cover the whole of Cornwall?
We work UK-wide, so Rinsey is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Rinsey?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- 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.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, typically until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Clear the area around the damage
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
