Trusted shower tray repair in Otham

Otham questions

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Usually, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.

Do you cover Otham?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Otham and the rest of Kent. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Shower tray repair in Otham without replacing anything

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. If you are dealing with damage around the waste and a tray that flexes, we can help, on cast iron, acrylic and stone resin alike.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Choosing a repair company

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Otham as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Repair or replace in Otham?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
