Shower tray repair in Eynsford, done in place
In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched. We work on cast iron, acrylic and enamelled steel, and common reasons people contact us are scratches in the surface and chipped corners or rims.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Should you replace it?
A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
Instead of hourly rates, 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.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back
For a price in Eynsford, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
When we would advise against a repair
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- A tray that moves underfoot

Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Eynsford, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
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.
What we’re called out for in Eynsford
Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, generally along the edges or by the waste.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- A crack across the base
- Damage around the waste
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
Questions to ask before booking
- Aftercare advice
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
Your questions about shower tray repair in Eynsford
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced without removing it.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
We would stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the day after.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
