What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
About our shower tray repair in Hildersham
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack does not come back. Our repair technicians work on ceramic, cast iron and enamelled steel, and people most frequently call us about chipped corners or rims and snagging damage in a new bathroom.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

For landlords and businesses
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.
If you manage property in Hildersham, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
What a repair cannot fix
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Trays cracked in several places
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Signs you need shower tray repair in Hildersham
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks generally point to an uneven base.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Damage around the waste
Comparing quotes
- How long it needs to cure
- What aftercare is recommended
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Why repair rather than replace?
A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- 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.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
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.

How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Use the extractor fan
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

Hildersham questions
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Cambridgeshire.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.
