Shower tray repair in Rhodes Minnis, done in place
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. We match the colour and finish. We work on acrylic, enamelled steel and ceramic, and common reasons people get in touch are a tray that flexes and a damaged area around the waste.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. 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.
What you get with us
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- One visit for most repairs
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Colour mixed on the day to match

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Rhodes Minnis use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
What a repair cannot fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Trays cracked in several places
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
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.
When to call us in Rhodes Minnis
Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
People usually call us after spotting something like this:
- Damage from a refit or building work
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Chips on the edges
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
What to look for in a quote
- How changes to the job are handled
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Who turns up on the day

Rhodes Minnis: your questions answered
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Kent, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, usually by the day after, you can use the shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Getting a price
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
