How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
About our shower tray repair in Leybourne
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. Typical jobs include chips on the edges and a damaged area around the waste, on ceramic, acrylic and cast iron.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What else we do in Leybourne
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
What we cannot put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Trays cracked in several places
- Leaking waste fittings
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Landlord and trade work in Leybourne
If you manage property in Leybourne, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Common problems we fix in Leybourne
Dull and stained trays are normally down to cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale wear the finish away.
Look out for these signs:
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Cracks running from the waste
- Chipped corners or rims
- Damage from a refit or building work

How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice
Leybourne questions
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Only if you’re sure it isn’t leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
What happens after I send photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
