Common questions in Lower Layham
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Suffolk.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Get a moving tray checked
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
Should you replace it?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Lower Layham. What changes the price is:
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Lower Layham. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your IP7 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Common problems we fix in Lower Layham
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Scratches in the surface
- Damage around the waste
- Movement when you stand on it

- If travel is included in the price
- How soon you can use it again

Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
What we do, step by step
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It usually takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find 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 colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- Once cured, typically by the following day, you can use the shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
