Shower tray repair in Pin Mill without replacing anything
Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces can all be put right without removing the tray. We’re often asked to fix chips or cracks by the plughole and a crack across the base, on ceramic, enamelled steel and acrylic.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Why repair rather than replace?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Pin Mill
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Movement when you stand on it
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Chips on the edges
- A damaged area around the waste

Common questions in Pin Mill
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Are there extra charges for Pin Mill?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
How long before I can shower?
You’ll get the exact time when we finish, generally the next day.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Suffolk.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Use the extractor fan
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
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.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
What we can’t put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Leaking waste fittings
- Trays cracked in several places
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Pin Mill. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
You don’t 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 reply with a fixed price.
