How we handle shower tray repair in Gadshill
We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. If you’re dealing with damage from a refit or building work and a crack across the base, we can help, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray broken in more than one place
- A tray that moves underfoot
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Use the extractor fan
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.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Medway and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Repairing versus replacing in Gadshill
The tray is usually the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the following day.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Gadshill. The price comes down to:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
- The material
- The colour and finish to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole 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 price
You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Gadshill, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
