Little Thetford questions
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Usually, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
How long before I can shower?
Normally by the following day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Shower tray repair in Little Thetford, done in place
We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We will explain what we find. We work on cast iron, stone resin and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and edge chips from dropped bottles.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Use the extractor fan
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.
What affects the price in Little Thetford
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Send photos for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Little Thetford
The waste is a common starting point for cracks, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Chipped corners or rims
- Scuffs and light scratches
- A damaged area around the waste
- Cracks running from the waste

Other services in Little Thetford
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Little Thetford as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is typically best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- 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.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Ask for a price
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
