- Repairs from £95
- Cracks running from the waste

Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Shower tray repair at your home in Wainford
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. We work on acrylic, enamelled steel and ceramic, and common reasons people get in touch are a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and chipped corners or rims.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Suffolk.

For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wainford use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Wainford questions
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.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Do you work in Wainford?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Wainford for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Frequently. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
When can I use the shower again?
Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, 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. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new shower tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
What you get with us
- Work done at your home or business
- Most jobs done in one visit

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Wainford. The price reflects:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
What a repair cannot fix
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Trays cracked in several places
- Leaking waste fittings
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the following day.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
