How we handle shower tray repair in Great Eversden
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack doesn’t come back. Our technicians work on stone resin, enamelled steel and cast iron, and common reasons people contact us are a cracked shower tray and damage around the waste.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, usually until the day after.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

What affects the price in Great Eversden
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Great Eversden. The price comes down to:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Most clients in Great Eversden get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Repair or replace in Great Eversden?
A new shower tray generally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
