Common problems we fix in Castle Camps
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Chips on the edges
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Damage around the waste

How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, you can use the shower.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear the area around the damage

Common questions in Castle Camps
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
We would stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
When we’d advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Leaking waste fittings
- A tray that moves underfoot
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Store bottles off the tray
- Rinse away soap after showering
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Repairing versus replacing in Castle Camps
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is typically best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
