About our shower tray repair in Little Eversden

Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We work on ceramic, cast iron and stone resin, and people most frequently call us about chips caused during fitting and a cracked shower tray.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

Little Eversden questions

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Do you work in Little Eversden?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Little Eversden and the rest of Cambridgeshire. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Do you need shower tray repair in Little Eversden?

Cracks frequently start at the waste, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • A cracked shower tray
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole

Our hiring checklist

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send photos for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. Once cured, generally by the following day, you can use the shower.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Advice

How to look after the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Get a moving tray checked

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

When a repair is not the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
