Landlord and trade work in St Martin
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Cornwall and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
St Martin: your questions answered
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
When can I use the shower again?
We will give you the curing time on the day, typically the day after.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Do you come to St Martin?
We do. Repair technicians travel to St Martin from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, so St Martin is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Generally, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What affects the price in St Martin
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for St Martin. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
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. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
The process
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear the area around the damage

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Related advice
How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
What we are called out for in St Martin
Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, generally along the edges or by the waste.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Movement when you stand on it
- A crack across the base
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
Questions to ask before you book
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How soon you can use it again
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Whether they match the colour on site
