Should you replace it?
A new shower tray usually means removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

How the visit works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, you can use the shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Open a window if you can
- Keep a parking space free if you can

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Check the seal every few months
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Store bottles off the tray
- Get a moving tray checked
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cambridgeshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Can you fix a cracked tray?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Common problems we fix in Babraham
Cracks frequently start at the waste, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Scratches in the surface
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- A crack across the base
What your quote should include
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Who turns up on the day
- What aftercare is recommended
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- A tray broken in more than one place
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Stone resin
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
