How we handle shower tray repair in Shotley
The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We will explain what we find. If you are dealing with scuffs and light scratches and movement when you stand on it, we can help.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Trays cracked in several places
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Plumbing leaks under the tray

Materials we repair
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
- Cast iron
Why repair rather than replace?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Why book with us
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- One visit for most repairs

DIY kit or professional repair?
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 generally cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
The process
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 clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, typically until the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Keep a parking space free if you can

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Landlord and trade work in Shotley
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.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Suffolk and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Common problems we fix in Shotley
Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, usually along the edges or by the waste.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- A damaged area around the waste
- A crack across the base
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
Questions to ask before booking
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether a trained technician does the job
Common questions in Shotley
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
