What affects the price in Boyden Gate
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Shower tray repair in Boyden Gate without replacing anything

Every job is backed for twelve months in Boyden Gate and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
When to call us in Boyden Gate
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Chips on the edges
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Staining and dullness across the tray

- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tray generally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Boyden Gate. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Common questions in Boyden Gate
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
When can I use the shower again?
Normally by the following day. We’ll confirm before we leave.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Only if you’re sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.
What areas do you cover?
All of Kent, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
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.
What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
