Shower Tray Repair in Ickworth
Damaged shower tray in Ickworth? We repair it in place, match it on site and guarantee the work for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Use the extractor fan
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
How we handle shower tray repair in Ickworth
We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles aren’t disturbed. Common call-outs are for staining and dullness across the tray and edge chips from dropped bottles, on ceramic, enamelled steel and stone resin.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Repairing versus replacing in Ickworth
The tray is typically the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Do you need shower tray repair in Ickworth?
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks normally point to an uneven base.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- A damaged area around the waste
- Scratches in the surface
- Cracks running from the waste
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
Questions to ask before you book
- How the room is protected while they work
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- When it can be used again
What a repair can’t fix
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray broken in more than one place
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

What we do, step by step
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ickworth questions
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of Suffolk. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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: 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, it’s worth having it done properly.
