How we handle shower tray repair in Sibton
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We are frequently asked to fix snagging damage in a new bathroom and scratches in the surface, on acrylic, cast iron and ceramic.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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, a professional repair is worth it.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Questions from Sibton
Do you cover the entire of Suffolk?
We cover the entire UK, including Sibton and the rest of Suffolk. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Usually, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
The process
You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- 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, normally until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep a parking space free if you can

What affects the price in Sibton
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Most clients in Sibton get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
