Choosing a repair company

Shower tray repair in Ridley without replacing anything

A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. We regularly repair stone resin, acrylic and enamelled steel, and common reasons people contact us are cracks running from the waste and chips on the edges.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ridley

If you manage property in Ridley, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ridley as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Common questions in Ridley

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Often. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.

How long does it take to cure?

Normally the next day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.

Do you charge for travel?

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

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you cover the entire of Kent?

The entire UK, including all of Kent. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.

Repairing versus replacing in Ridley

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Ridley. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • One price list for the entire UK

Read our pricing.

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

If you’re in Ridley and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What a repair can’t fix

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

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Ridley. The price comes down to:

  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
