About our shower tray repair in Northfleet

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 is the case. If you’re dealing with scuffs and light scratches and a damaged area around the waste, we can help, on acrylic, stone resin and enamelled steel alike.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.

Repairing versus replacing in Northfleet

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Why book with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Fixed prices from your photos

See our prices page.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • The material and finish
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A picture taken from further back

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Northfleet

  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

Questions to ask before you book

  • Who will actually do the work
  • When it can be used again

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Ask for a price

Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your DA11 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
