Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Camelon

A tired-looking tray is frequently the result of years of cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads wear the finish away.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • A cracked shower tray
  • A tray that flexes
  • Damage around the waste

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

10 questions to ask before you book

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

Why repair rather than replace?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Camelon: your questions answered

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Only if you are sure it is not leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
