About our shower tray repair in Biddenden Green

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We work on acrylic, cast iron and ceramic, and people most frequently call us about a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and scratches in the surface.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Get a moving tray checked

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Questions from Biddenden Green

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

When can I use the shower again?

We’ll give you the curing time on the day, typically the day after.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Often. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Kent. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.

Different materials, different repairs

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 are filled and matched to the surface.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

What we’re called out for in Biddenden Green

Dull and stained trays are normally down to cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale strip the surface finish.

Common reasons people in Biddenden Green contact us include:

  • A tray that flexes
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Chips on the edges
  • A cracked shower tray

Comparing quotes

  • What preparation is included
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Aftercare advice
  • If travel is included in the price

Our hiring checklist

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tray usually means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched, at a fraction of the cost. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 fails, we can still put it right.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Biddenden Green

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

For anyone letting property in or around Biddenden Green, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, typically by the day after, you can use the shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
