Shower tray repair at your home in Aldeburgh

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. Typical jobs include a tray that flexes and damage from a refit or building work, on cast iron, stone resin and acrylic.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repairing versus replacing in Aldeburgh

Replacing a tray normally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Aldeburgh. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  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 match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. Once cured, typically by the next day, you can use the shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Common questions in Aldeburgh

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

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 homeowners.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Aftercare tips

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

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

For anyone letting property in or around Aldeburgh, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Aldeburgh. The price depends on:

  • Access to the area
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your photos

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
