Shower tray repair for Hadlow homes

About our shower tray repair in Hadlow

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack does not come back. We work on acrylic, stone resin and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are movement when you stand on it and a damaged area around the waste.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

How it works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, including clearing up.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the following day.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

What a repair can’t fix

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Leaking waste fittings

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

  • Stone resin
  • Ceramic
  • Enamelled steel
  • Cast iron
  • Acrylic

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

What we’re called out for in Hadlow

Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Movement when you stand on it

Comparing quotes

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether the price covers travel

How to compare quotes

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

FAQs for Hadlow

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Are there extra charges for Hadlow?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

How long before I can shower?

You will get the exact time when we finish.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote, usually with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

What affects the price in Hadlow

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Hadlow. The price reflects:

  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • Natural light rather than flash

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your TN11 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Should you replace it?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
