About our shower tray repair in Rickinghall
We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. If you are dealing with a dull, stained or worn surface and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Rickinghall
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Suffolk and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Questions from Rickinghall
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Rickinghall?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your IP22 postcode.
Do you cover the whole of Suffolk?
We cover the entire UK, including Rickinghall and the rest of Suffolk. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
When can I use the shower again?
We’ll give you the curing time on the day.
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.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
When to call us in Rickinghall
A tired-looking tray is often the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale wear the finish away.
Clients usually contact us about:
- A tray that flexes
- Scratches in the surface
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Chips on the edges
Questions to ask before booking

What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
How it works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Open a window if you can
Ask for a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
What a repair can’t fix
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- A tray broken in more than one place
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new shower tray normally means removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. 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 play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

- What kind of damage it is

- Unusual colours or finishes
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote

- Details of any past repairs
