How we handle shower tray repair in Aldborough

Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles aren’t disturbed. Our repair technicians work on acrylic, stone resin and enamelled steel, and common reasons people contact us are scratches from cleaning or grit and chipped corners or rims.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Norfolk.

FAQs for Aldborough

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do you cover the whole of Norfolk?

All of Norfolk, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

When can I use the shower again?

You will get the exact time when we finish, usually the next day.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.

What we cannot put right

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray broken in more than one place

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Aldborough

  • Acrylic
  • Stone resin
  • Ceramic
  • Enamelled steel
  • Cast iron

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Most customers in Aldborough get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What we are called out for in Aldborough

Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Chipped corners or rims

Questions to ask before booking

  • What preparation is included
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How soon you can use it again

How to compare quotes

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

Landlords, agents and businesses in Aldborough

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

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.
