About our shower tray repair in Duxford
A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can typically be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. Common call-outs are for chips on the edges and damage from a refit or building work, on acrylic, stone resin and enamelled steel.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

What affects the price in Duxford
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
The process
We turn 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 the day to resurface the whole tray, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Duxford questions
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Cambridgeshire.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
