Shower tray repair in Rainham without replacing anything

A worn or stained tray can be resurfaced, giving it a fresh, even finish. Our repair technicians work on cast iron, ceramic and stone resin, and common reasons people contact us are scuffs and light scratches and a crack across the base.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

How to look after the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

How to compare quotes

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Read our pricing.

What a repair can’t fix

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray that moves underfoot

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

  • Cast iron
  • Stone resin
  • Acrylic
  • Ceramic
  • Enamelled steel

The process

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. Once cured, usually by the day after, you can use the shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

What affects the price in Rainham

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Most clients in Rainham get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
