Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
About our shower tray repair in Castle Acre
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack does not come back. Typical jobs include a crack across the base and scratches from cleaning or grit, on ceramic, cast iron and stone resin.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Castle Acre. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a tray typically means removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

When we would advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Plumbing leaks under the tray

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
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.
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Use the extractor fan
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
Castle Acre questions
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Norfolk.
