Shower tray repair in Abington Pigotts without replacing anything

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched. If you’re dealing with movement when you stand on it and scratches in the surface, we can normally put it right, on stone resin, enamelled steel and ceramic alike.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cambridgeshire.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Repair or replace: which is better?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: 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.

What you get with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

Abington Pigotts: your questions answered

How long before I can shower?

We’ll give you the curing time on the day.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Landlord and trade work in Abington Pigotts

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Abington Pigotts use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

What a repair cannot fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Enamelled steel
  • Stone resin
  • Ceramic
  • Cast iron
  • Acrylic

When to call us in Abington Pigotts

The waste is a common starting point for cracks, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Damage from a refit or building work

What your quote should include

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How your room will be protected
