Shower tray repair in Rumford, done in place
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Whether it’s staining and dullness across the tray and chips or cracks by the plughole, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Get a moving tray checked
- Use the extractor fan
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. 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 pictures.
What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Rumford. What changes the price is:
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Rumford. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A photo taken from further back
Most customers in Rumford get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

How it works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, including clearing up.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the next day.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Make sure the area is dry
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Rumford, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Questions from Rumford
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Do you work in Rumford?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Rumford and the rest of Cornwall. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
