Repairing versus replacing in Old Hall Street
A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How we handle shower tray repair in Old Hall Street
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. We regularly repair stone resin, cast iron and acrylic, and people most often call us about a tray that flexes and a dull, stained or worn surface.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Common questions in Old Hall Street
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Norfolk.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Related advice
What a repair can’t fix
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
- Enamelled steel
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Do you need shower tray repair in Old Hall Street?
Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Scuffs and light scratches
- A damaged area around the waste
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Chips caused during fitting
Questions to ask before booking
- How the colour is matched
- How changes to the job are handled
- When it can be used again
- Who turns up on the day
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
If you are in Old Hall Street and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
