Shower tray repair & resurfacing in Burston, Suffolk
Shower tray chip, crack and scratch repairs and resurfacing for householders, landlords and businesses in Burston. Free, fixed quotes from your pictures.
- Repairs from £95
- Cracks running from the waste
- Chips on the edges
How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Use the extractor fan
- Check the seal every few months
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.
Shower tray repair in Burston, done in place
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We will tell you if that is the case. Common call-outs are for a dull, stained or worn surface and scuffs and light scratches, in stone resin, ceramic and cast iron.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Burston. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- A tray broken in more than one place
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Landlord and trade work in Burston
For anyone letting property in or around Burston, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Burston use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Ensure the area is dry
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Questions from Burston
Do you cover Burston?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Burston from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Burston?

Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
How long does it take to cure?
We’ll give you the curing time on the day.
