Common questions in East Bergholt
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.
Shower tray repair in East Bergholt, done in place
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. If you are dealing with scratches from cleaning or grit and chipped corners or rims, we can help, on acrylic, cast iron and enamelled steel alike.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

How it works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- 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 clean up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Related advice
What we are called out for in East Bergholt
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks typically point to an uneven base.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Cracks running from the waste
- Chips caused during fitting
- Scratches in the surface
- Chipped corners or rims
Questions to ask before booking
- How long it needs to cure
- Who will actually do the work
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How changes to the job are handled
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
Should you replace it?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is usually best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

Surfaces we repair
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including East Bergholt. What changes the price is:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the entire shower tray
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.
