Do you need shower tray repair in Minsmere?
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- A crack across the base
- Damage from a refit or building work
- A damaged area around the waste
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
What to look for in a quote

About our shower tray repair in Minsmere
The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. We’re often asked to fix movement when you stand on it and chips caused during fitting, across cast iron, ceramic and acrylic.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, normally until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Common questions in Minsmere
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Minsmere?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Often. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Suffolk.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Check the seal every few months
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
