Your questions about shower tray repair in Redisham
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
When can I use the shower again?
You’ll get the exact time when we finish, generally the following day.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Suffolk.
Do you come to Redisham?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Redisham and the rest of Suffolk. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced.
How it works
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

We price from photos so you do not 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.
Advice
Signs you need shower tray repair in Redisham
Heavy bottles, shower heads and dropped razors chip trays, usually along the edges or by the waste.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- A crack across the base
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Staining and dullness across the tray
Before you book anyone
- How changes to the job are handled
- What preparation is included
- Whether they match the colour on site
- If travel is included in the price
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
How to get a fixed quote
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A picture taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
Most clients in Redisham get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
When we’d advise against a repair
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray broken in more than one place
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Different materials, different repairs
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.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
