Shower tray repair at your home in Sea Palling
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll explain what we find. Common call-outs are for chips caused during fitting and scuffs and light scratches, in cast iron, ceramic and stone resin.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. 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 damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What a repair can’t fix
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Multiple cracks across the tray
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Sea Palling

How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, typically until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price

Advice
Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your NR12 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Should you replace it?
A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
