Shower Tray Repair across Cambridgeshire

How shower tray repair works in Cambridgeshire

We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We will explain what we find. We work on cast iron, stone resin and ceramic, and common reasons people contact us are chipped corners or rims and scratches in the surface.

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, including clearing up.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, generally until the next day.

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Ceramic

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

How to look after the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Report any creaking or movement early

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

What affects the price in Cambridgeshire

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Cambridgeshire. The price comes down to:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage
  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A photo taken from further back

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Why repair rather than replace?

The tray is typically the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is.

Comparing quotes

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How to care for the finish

Honest limits

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
