Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
When we would advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Capel-le-Ferne questions
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish without removing it.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Capel-le-Ferne?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your CT18 postcode.

How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Open a window if you can

Related advice
Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Repairing versus replacing in Capel-le-Ferne
Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
