About our shower tray repair in St Day
We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We are often asked to fix a cracked shower tray and a damaged area around the waste, in cast iron, ceramic and acrylic.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

FAQs for St Day
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
How much does shower tray repair cost in St Day?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
How long does it take to cure?
We’ll give you the curing time on the day, generally the following day.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
We would stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
How it works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.
- We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the day after.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Leaking waste fittings
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- A tray broken in more than one place

Repair or replace: which is better?
The tray is generally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
What you get with us
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Landlord and trade work in St Day
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Cornwall and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.
