About our shower tray repair in Great Green
You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We’re often asked to fix snagging damage in a new bathroom and a cracked shower tray, across cast iron, stone resin and ceramic.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Great Green as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
If you manage property in Great Green, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, typically until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Check the seal every few months
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
Common questions in Great Green
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Cambridgeshire.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Repair or replace: which is better?
