DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
How we handle shower tray repair in Kilvington
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. Typical jobs include movement when you stand on it and a crack across the base, in enamelled steel, ceramic and cast iron.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Kilvington
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish without removing it.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What affects the price in Kilvington
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Kilvington. The price depends on:
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Kilvington. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.
What happens on the day
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the day after.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear the area around the damage
Getting a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
