About our shower tray repair in Cherry Hinton
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. We match the colour and finish. Common call-outs are for movement when you stand on it and scratches in the surface, in cast iron, stone resin and acrylic.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Cherry Hinton
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Chips generally come from dropped bottles.
Customers typically contact us about:
- Chipped corners or rims
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- A crack across the base
- Movement when you stand on it
What your quote should include
- What prep work is covered
- How to care for the finish
- When it can be used again
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
Should you replace it?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What affects the price in Cherry Hinton
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
