Shower Tray Repair for Arminghall homes
Fixed-price shower tray repair in Arminghall and the surrounding area, generally in one visit and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- A crack across the base

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Check the seal every few months
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
How we handle shower tray repair in Arminghall
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. Typical jobs include a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and damage from a refit or building work, across acrylic, ceramic and stone resin.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Make sure the area is dry
How to get a price

Advice
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
When a repair is not the answer
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Leaking waste fittings
- Multiple cracks across the tray
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Arminghall
- Stone resin
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
Why repair rather than replace?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- The material, if you know it
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your NR14 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Should I try a DIY kit 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.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Do you need shower tray repair in Arminghall?
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A tray that flexes
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- A cracked shower tray
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
