FAQs for Bungay
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
How long does it take to cure?
Normally the next day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Normally, as long as it does not flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Shower tray repair at your home in Bungay
If the whole tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish. Whether it’s snagging damage in a new bathroom and chips or cracks by the plughole, we can usually put it right, on cast iron, enamelled steel and stone resin alike.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Use the extractor fan
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Rinse away soap after showering
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.
What happens on the day
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, including clearing up.
- We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

What we’re called out for in Bungay
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.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- A cracked shower tray
- A damaged area around the waste
What your quote should include
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Aftercare advice
- How the colour is matched
- Who will actually do the work
Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
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.
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Bungay. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Bungay, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new shower tray normally means removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
