Shower tray repair in Grundisburgh, done in place
You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. Common call-outs are for staining and dullness across the tray and scratches from cleaning or grit, in acrylic, cast iron and ceramic.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

If you manage property in Grundisburgh, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
What happens on the day
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- 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
- Make sure the area is dry
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Related advice
Why repair rather than replace?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
