Shower tray repair in Longfield, done in place
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. Our repair technicians work on enamelled steel, stone resin and cast iron, and people most often call us about edge chips from dropped bottles and a tray that flexes.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Landlord and trade work in Longfield
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
FAQs for Longfield
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Typically, as long as it does not flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
How long does it take to cure?
Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Do you cover Longfield?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Longfield and the rest of Kent. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What else we do in Longfield
What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Report any creaking or movement early
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
Do you need shower tray repair in Longfield?
Dull and stained trays are normally down to cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads strip the surface finish.
Common reasons people in Longfield contact us are:
- A cracked shower tray
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Chips on the edges
- Scuffs and light scratches

What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 often lifts.
When a repair isn’t the answer
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
