Shower tray repair in Biddenden, done in place
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. We work on stone resin, enamelled steel and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are damage around the waste and scratches from cleaning or grit.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Biddenden and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.
How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Biddenden. The price depends on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

Biddenden questions
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Biddenden.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Repairing versus replacing in Biddenden
The tray is generally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Biddenden. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
