Common problems we fix in St Minver

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Store bottles off the tray
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.

What else we do in St Minver
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in St Minver use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- 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.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice
FAQs for St Minver
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced without removing it.
How long does it take to cure?
Normally by the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in St Minver?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What affects the price in St Minver
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the entire shower tray
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
