DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 will not last.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Camperdown

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

If you manage property in Camperdown, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray normally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • No need to remove anything
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

Camperdown questions

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

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

When can I use the shower again?

You will get the exact time when we finish, typically the next day.

Are there extra charges for Camperdown?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.

When we would advise against a repair

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Leaking waste fittings

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Stone resin
  • Enamelled steel
  • Ceramic
  • Cast iron

Do you need shower tray repair in Camperdown?

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:

  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Scuffs and light scratches

What your quote should include

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How the room is protected while they work

How to compare quotes

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple:

  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow 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. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
