What affects the price in Chettisham
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
How we handle shower tray repair in Chettisham
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack doesn’t come back. Typical jobs include a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and scuffs and light scratches, in acrylic, stone resin and enamelled steel.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Questions from Chettisham
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
When we would advise against a repair
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Multiple cracks across the tray
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Use the extractor fan
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Check the seal every few months
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Landlord and trade work in Chettisham
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, typically until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
