Shower Tray Repair for Heronden homes
We travel to Heronden for shower tray chip, crack and scratch repairs and resurfacing. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- A cracked shower tray
- Damage around the waste
What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Shower tray repair in Heronden without replacing anything
We repair plenty of shower trays. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces can all be put right without removing the tray. Our technicians work on enamelled steel, cast iron and ceramic, and common reasons people get in touch are a dull, stained or worn surface and scratches in the surface.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Heronden
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
If you manage property in Heronden, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Store bottles off the tray
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
Repair or replace in Heronden?
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. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, including clearing up.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Open a window if you can

FAQs for Heronden
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Kent.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Typically, as long as it doesn’t flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send photos for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
