About our shower tray repair in Kingston near Lewes
The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We will tell you if that’s the case. Our repair technicians work on acrylic, cast iron and enamelled steel, and people most often call us about staining and dullness across the tray and a tray that flexes.
Homes around Kingston near Lewes frequently have showers added to older buildings, so we check how the tray is supported before repairing.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, 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.

Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos

- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
If you are in Kingston near Lewes and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.

Advice
When to call us in Kingston near Lewes
Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Damage around the waste
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Cracks running from the waste
Landlords with property near Lewes station (about 1.8 miles north-east) use us between tenancies, so shower trays are repaired rather than replaced.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How the colour is matched
- What happens if they find more damage
- How long it needs to cure
Repairing versus replacing in Kingston near Lewes
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Older homes around Kingston near Lewes may have sizes and fittings that new pieces don’t match. A repair keeps the original.
Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
