Shower tray repair in Thurlton without replacing anything
In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. Our technicians work on stone resin, acrylic and enamelled steel, and people most often call us about a crack across the base and staining and dullness across the tray.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Thurlton as everywhere else we work.

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can price the job without visiting.

Other services in Thurlton
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Thurlton: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Norfolk.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first.
Do you work in Thurlton?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Thurlton and the rest of Norfolk. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not 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 photos, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
How the visit works
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear the area around the damage
Getting a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
