How we handle shower tray repair in Framlingham
In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. Common call-outs are for scuffs and light scratches and chips or cracks by the plughole, across stone resin, enamelled steel and acrylic.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Suffolk.

Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Questions from Framlingham
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
How long before I can shower?
You will get the exact time when we finish, generally the following day.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Use the extractor fan
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.
Landlord and trade work in Framlingham
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Suffolk and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What affects the price in Framlingham
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
For a price in Framlingham, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Framlingham
Rigid trays do not bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Chipped corners or rims
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Movement when you stand on it

How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know about parking or access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
