Shower tray repair in Carclaze without replacing anything
We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We will tell you if that’s the case. If you’re dealing with a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and a damaged area around the waste, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the day after.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the area is dry
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Your questions about shower tray repair in Carclaze
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Often. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Report any creaking or movement early
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Carclaze. The price reflects:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your PL25 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
What we’re called out for in Carclaze
A tired-looking tray is often the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale strip the surface finish.
Common reasons people in Carclaze contact us are:
- Cracks running from the waste
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Scuffs and light scratches
Questions to ask before booking
- How the colour is matched
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- When it can be used again
What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
