Why repair rather than replace?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
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 usually cheaper.
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in St Agnes use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Honest limits
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
- Stone resin
- Cast iron
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
St Agnes questions
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in St Agnes?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
