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.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Shower tray repair in Sandway, done in place
In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. Common call-outs are for scratches in the surface and movement when you stand on it, across ceramic, acrylic and enamelled steel.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Sandway. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
No two jobs are quite the same, 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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- A photo taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
There’s no need for us to visit first. 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.
Do you need shower tray repair in Sandway?
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Chips caused during fitting
Before booking anyone
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What preparation is included
- When it can be used again
- How changes to the job are handled
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Check the seal every few months
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Use the extractor fan
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

Common questions in Sandway
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Do you come to Sandway?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Sandway and the rest of Kent. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Sandway
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
