Shower tray repair in Erwarton, done in place
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched. We are often asked to fix chipped corners or rims and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, in acrylic, enamelled steel and ceramic.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, typically until the day after.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Questions from Erwarton
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Do you cover the whole of Suffolk?
The entire UK, including all of Suffolk. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.
Can you quote from photos?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Are there extra charges for Erwarton?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Get a moving tray checked
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
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.
What we cannot put right
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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.
For landlords and businesses
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.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Suffolk and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Other services in Erwarton
Should you replace it?

Signs you need shower tray repair in Erwarton
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Chips caused during fitting
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- A crack across the base
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
