Shower tray repair & resurfacing in Stowupland, Suffolk
Fixed-price shower tray repair in Stowupland and the surrounding area, normally in one visit and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- A damaged area around the waste
- Scuffs and light scratches
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Why repair rather than replace?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is typically best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Stowupland. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why us?
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Most jobs done in one visit
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Stowupland, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Stowupland as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
What affects the price in Stowupland
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
Every job is a little different, 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.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
