  • What the surface is made of

Shower tray repair in Romney Street without replacing anything

Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. Our repair technicians work on cast iron, stone resin and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are snagging damage in a new bathroom and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it.

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.

What we’re called out for in Romney Street

Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Chips usually come from dropped bottles.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Chips caused during fitting
  • A tray that flexes
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

How to compare quotes

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95.

Landlord and trade work in Romney Street

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Kent and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray for most jobs. The room is left tidy.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. Once cured, usually by the next day, you can use the shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice

Romney Street: your questions answered

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Are there extra charges for Romney Street?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
