Questions from Alconbury
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Cambridgeshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Alconbury
Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Chips usually come from dropped bottles.
Customers usually contact us about:
- Movement when you stand on it
- Chips on the edges
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Chips caused during fitting
Before you book anyone
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Aftercare advice
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What prep work is covered
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Repair or replace in Alconbury?
Replacing a tray usually means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
