DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Shower tray repair in Abbotsley without replacing anything
If the whole tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish. We’re frequently asked to fix a cracked shower tray and chips on the edges, on cast iron, acrylic and stone resin.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Landlord and trade work in Abbotsley
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.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Your questions about shower tray repair in Abbotsley
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you cover the entire of Cambridgeshire?
Everywhere in the UK, Abbotsley included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Cambridgeshire.
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Rinse away soap after showering
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
