DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

FAQs for Paglesham Eastend
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
How long does it take to cure?
Generally the next day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.
Do you cover Paglesham Eastend?
We do. Technicians travel to Paglesham Eastend from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Use the extractor fan
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, 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. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice
What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
Should you replace it?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is usually best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
