DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Shower tray repair in Appledore Heath, done in place
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. Common call-outs are for damage from a refit or building work and scuffs and light scratches, across stone resin, acrylic and ceramic.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

The process
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Open a window if you can
- Make sure the area is dry

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
What we’re called out for in Appledore Heath
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
Common reasons people in Appledore Heath contact us include:
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- A tray that flexes
- Chips caused during fitting
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
Questions to ask before booking
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- What preparation is included
- Whether they match the colour on site

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Appledore Heath. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
