How we handle shower tray repair in Withnoe
A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can typically be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. Typical jobs include staining and dullness across the tray and damage from a refit or building work, in stone resin, acrylic and cast iron.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

About Withnoe
Withnoe is about 10 miles north-west of Tavistock, in Cornwall. We work in every kind of home, old or new, large or small, plus businesses and rented homes. Withnoe is one of 644 places in Cornwall where we work.
Here we cover the PL15 postcode area. Streets in the area include Tavistock Road, Blackthorn Close and Chestnut Drive, and we cover them all. If you’re just outside Withnoe, we cover Stourscombe (1 mile east), Launceston (1 mile north-west), Lawhitton (1 mile south-east), Newport (1 mile north-west) and St Stephens by Launceston (2 miles north-west). Further out, we also cover Liskeard (13 miles south-west), Addington (13 miles south), Callington (9 miles south), Camelford (15 miles west), Gunnislake (9 miles south-east) and Dobwalls (14 miles south-west).

Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What affects the price in Withnoe
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A picture taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
If you are in Withnoe and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Report any creaking or movement early
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 often lifts.
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.

When a repair is not the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Trays cracked in several places
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel

Withnoe questions
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
