Shower Tray Repair in Trewoon
Problem with your shower tray in Trewoon? We put it right where it is, match it on site and back it with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Cracks running from the waste
How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Check the seal every few months
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Store bottles off the tray
Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
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.

Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
FAQs for Trewoon
When can I use the shower again?
Usually the following day. We will confirm before we leave.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Only if you are sure it is not leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed price, usually with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
When a repair is not the answer
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Leaking waste fittings
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
What we do, step by step
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we’re 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.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
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.
What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
How to get a fixed quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A photo taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Details of any past repairs
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your PL25 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
