Shower tray repair in Kearsney, done in place

You do not always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Typical jobs include damage from a refit or building work and chips or cracks by the plughole, on stone resin, ceramic and acrylic.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

When to call us in Kearsney

Cracks frequently start at the waste, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Scratches in the surface
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Movement when you stand on it

Questions to ask before you book

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Who turns up on the day

Choosing a repair company

Landlord and trade work in Kearsney

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Kearsney as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Kearsney questions

Will you leave a mess?

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

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you come to Kearsney?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Kearsney and the rest of Kent. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

We would stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work

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.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your CT16 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price

Most clients in Kearsney get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Related advice

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

When a repair isn’t the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

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