How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Store bottles off the tray
Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

What happens on the day
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, usually until the next day.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price

Advice
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

St Erth Praze questions
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Are there extra charges for St Erth Praze?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Other services in St Erth Praze
Why repair rather than replace?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for St Erth Praze. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why us?
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Rooms protected and left tidy
