- Repairs from £95
- A tray that flexes
- Scratches in the surface
The process
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, typically until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

More services for Trelake
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Trelake as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Get a moving tray checked
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
Questions from Trelake
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Do you cover Trelake?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Trelake from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Trelake. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
What a repair cannot fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray broken in more than one place
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Trelake
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

- A tray that flexes
