Trusted shower tray repair in Cromer

Shower tray repair at your home in Cromer

A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can normally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. If you are dealing with damage from a refit or building work and a damaged area around the waste, we can help.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Our hiring checklist

What affects the price in Cromer

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A picture taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
