Shower tray repair in Clampits, done in place
You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We regularly repair acrylic, enamelled steel and cast iron, and people most frequently call us about a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and a crack across the base.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

The process
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Clampits
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Clampits as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
What we are called out for in Clampits
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Chips generally come from dropped bottles.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A cracked shower tray
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- A tray that flexes
- Scratches in the surface

Your questions about shower tray repair in Clampits
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Generally, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Cornwall, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use the extractor fan
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
Repairing versus replacing in Clampits
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. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

What else we do in Clampits
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
