Shower tray repair in Oakington, done in place
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. Our technicians work on stone resin, ceramic and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are a crack across the base and chipped corners or rims.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.

Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Why repair rather than replace?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Oakington questions
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Can you quote from photos?
Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Ventilate the room after showers
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.
