Shower tray repair in Kelsale without replacing anything
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched. We regularly repair enamelled steel, stone resin and cast iron, and common reasons people contact us are snagging damage in a new bathroom and chips on the edges.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Kelsale: your questions answered
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
How much does shower tray repair cost in Kelsale?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
How it works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice
Landlord and trade work in Kelsale
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Kelsale use us as well as homeowners. 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.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the whole shower tray
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Use the extractor fan
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
- Cast iron
What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
