How we handle shower tray repair in King's Dyke
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack does not come back. We work on acrylic, stone resin and cast iron, and common reasons people get in touch are scuffs and light scratches and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Common problems we fix in King's Dyke
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- A crack across the base
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Scratches in the surface
- Staining and dullness across the tray

What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Landlord and trade work in King's Dyke
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Cambridgeshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Getting a price

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
FAQs for King's Dyke
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
When can I use the shower again?
We’ll give you the curing time on the day, typically the day after.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?

How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Use the extractor fan
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Report any creaking or movement early
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.
