Shower tray repair at your home in Tresevern Croft

You do not always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. Our repair technicians work on ceramic, stone resin and cast iron, and people most often call us about a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and a cracked shower tray.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Landlord and trade work in Tresevern Croft

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Repair or replace in Tresevern Croft?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally 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. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.

Common questions in Tresevern Croft

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Do you cover the entire of Cornwall?

All of Cornwall, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

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 are filled and matched to the surface.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
