When to call us in Methwold
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A tray that flexes
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- A damaged area around the waste
Before you book anyone
- How long it needs to cure
- What prep work is covered
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether a trained technician does the job

Methwold questions
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Methwold.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Methwold?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

The process
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, typically by the day after, you can use the shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Repair or replace: which is better?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts 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.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Use the extractor fan
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
