Trusted shower tray repair in Kenny Hill

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the day after.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

About our shower tray repair in Kenny Hill

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. We work on enamelled steel, ceramic and stone resin, and common reasons people contact us are scuffs and light scratches and damage from a refit or building work.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Stone resin

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

Can I fix it myself?

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Landlord and trade work in Kenny Hill

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Common problems we fix in Kenny Hill

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

The things customers typically mention when they call include:

  • Scratches in the surface
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Damage around the waste
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles

Questions to ask before booking

  • When it can be used again
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How to look after the finish
  • Who turns up on the day

10 questions to ask before booking

What we cannot put right

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Acrylic
  • Ceramic
  • Cast iron
  • Enamelled steel
  • Stone resin

Repairing versus replacing in Kenny Hill

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is typically best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why book with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner

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

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.

Kenny Hill: your questions answered

Do I have to be there?

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

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
