Shower tray repair at your home in Old Catton
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. Common call-outs are for a damaged area around the waste and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, on acrylic, enamelled steel and ceramic.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

When to call us in Old Catton
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A damaged area around the waste
- Chipped corners or rims
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- A crack across the base
Questions to ask before you book
- What happens if they find more damage
- When it can be used again
- Whether the price covers travel
- How your room will be protected
Repair or replace in Old Catton?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Letting agents often 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.
Common questions in Old Catton
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the entire UK, including Old Catton and the rest of Norfolk. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.
What we do, step by step
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the next day.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear the area around the damage

What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How much damage there is
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- A photo taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
