Shower tray repair in Hemingford Abbots

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, normally until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Ensure the area is dry

Shower tray repair in Hemingford Abbots, done in place

If the whole tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish without removing the screen or tiles. We regularly repair cast iron, enamelled steel and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are chips caused during fitting and staining and dullness across the tray.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Hemingford Abbots and across Cambridgeshire.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Hemingford Abbots. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

See our pricing.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

What affects the price in Hemingford Abbots

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area
  • The material

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash

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.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

FAQs for Hemingford Abbots

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

How long before I can shower?

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

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

What we can’t put right

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • A tray broken in more than one place

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Cast iron
  • Stone resin
  • Enamelled steel
  • Ceramic
  • Acrylic

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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 can be filled and matched.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
