About our shower tray repair in Great Livermere
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack does not come back. We work on ceramic, cast iron and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are damage from a refit or building work and chips or cracks by the plughole.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What else we do in Great Livermere
Great Livermere: your questions answered
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Typically, as long as it does not flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Great Livermere and the rest of Suffolk. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
How it works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, including clearing up.
- We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, usually by the day after, you can use the shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know about parking or access
Getting a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Advice
What affects the price in Great Livermere
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Work for landlords and builders
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.
