Carn Towan: your questions answered
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Carn Towan.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, usually with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do you cover the whole of Cornwall?
We work UK-wide, so Carn Towan is covered. Prices do not change with location.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
What we are called out for in Carn Towan
Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Common reasons people in Carn Towan contact us include:
- Chips caused during fitting
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- A damaged area around the waste
- Staining and dullness across the tray
Before booking anyone
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- When it can be used again
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Why repair rather than replace?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How the visit works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, tidy-up included.
- 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.
- It’s left to cure, generally until the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice
Also in Carn Towan
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
