Repair or replace: which is better?

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- A tray that moves underfoot
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

How the visit works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, tidy-up included.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, typically until the next day.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice

Other services in King's Hedges
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
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.
Common questions in King's Hedges
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced.
Do you cover the entire of Cambridgeshire?
We cover the entire UK, including King's Hedges and the rest of Cambridgeshire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
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.
Do you need shower tray repair in King's Hedges?
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips typically come from dropped bottles.
Customers usually contact us about:
- Chipped corners or rims
- Chips caused during fitting
- A crack across the base
- Movement when you stand on it
