What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Store bottles off the tray
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Repairing versus replacing in Walsham le Willows
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. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- Once cured, usually by the following day, you can use the shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
