How we handle shower tray repair in Hollesley
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. Our technicians work on stone resin, enamelled steel and ceramic, and common reasons people get in touch are edge chips from dropped bottles and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

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.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- Once cured, generally by the following day, you can use the shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on

How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Your questions about shower tray repair in Hollesley
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
How long before I can shower?
Usually the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Are there extra charges for Hollesley?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
