Shower tray repair near Kempe's Corner

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • How much damage there is
  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send pictures for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your TN25 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Aftercare tips

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

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Check the seal every few months

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Questions from Kempe's Corner

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Kempe's Corner

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

For anyone letting property in or around Kempe's Corner, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

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.

Why repair rather than replace?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Kempe's Corner. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Advice

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
