Trusted shower tray repair in Great Gidding

Shower tray repair in Great Gidding, done in place

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. If you are dealing with scratches in the surface and edge chips from dropped bottles, we can generally put it right, on acrylic, cast iron and enamelled steel alike.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to compare quotes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

What we cannot put right

We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Trays cracked in several places

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Great Gidding

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

FAQs for Great Gidding

When can I use the shower again?

Normally by the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. Look for damp or stains below.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Great Gidding and the rest of Cambridgeshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

The process

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, including clearing up.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your PE28 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Advice

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
