Shower tray repair & resurfacing in Ravenswood, Suffolk
Shower tray repair across Ravenswood and nearby, generally in one visit.
- Repairs from £95
- Chips on the edges
- Scuffs and light scratches
How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Use the extractor fan
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.
About our shower tray repair in Ravenswood
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. If you’re dealing with a tray that flexes and a crack across the base, we can typically put it right, on cast iron, stone resin and acrylic alike.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Suffolk.

Common questions in Ravenswood
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Do you cover the entire of Suffolk?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
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.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
You do not 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 quote.
Repair or replace in Ravenswood?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Same prices wherever you are
- A fixed quote before you book
- Work done at your home or business

Landlord and trade work in Ravenswood
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
When to call us in Ravenswood
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- A cracked shower tray
What your quote should include
- Whether the price covers travel
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How to look after the finish
- Whether a trained technician does the job
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the following day.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
