About our shower tray repair in North Elmham
In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish. We’re often asked to fix edge chips from dropped bottles and damage from a refit or building work, across ceramic, acrylic and cast iron.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
FAQs for North Elmham
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, usually until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Store bottles off the tray
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
Why repair rather than replace?
The tray is typically the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Why book with us
- Colour-matched on site
- No extra charge for your area

For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Norfolk and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
