Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Common questions in Kenardington

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Normally, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

How long does it take to cure?

You will get the exact time when we finish.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Kent and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. 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

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Kenardington. The price reflects:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know

If you are in Kenardington and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

How it works

When we visit, 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 the day to resurface the whole tray. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Check the seal every few months

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
