Shower tray repair in Ivychurch, 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. We match the colour and finish. We’re often asked to fix chips or cracks by the plughole and scuffs and light scratches, on stone resin, acrylic and cast iron.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What we do, step by step
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, generally until the day after.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Check the seal every few months
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Store bottles off the tray
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Ivychurch. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
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 make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A photo taken from further back
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. 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.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
Your questions about shower tray repair in Ivychurch
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Normally, as long as it doesn’t flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do you cover Ivychurch?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Ivychurch for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do you cover the entire of Kent?
The entire UK, including all of Kent. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.
