Trusted shower tray repair in Selling

Shower tray repair in Selling, done in place

The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll tell you if that is the case. We regularly repair ceramic, acrylic and stone resin, and the jobs we see most are chips caused during fitting and a tray that flexes.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Selling and across Kent.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Check the seal every few months

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.

Landlord and trade work in Selling

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Kent and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Selling. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A picture taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Why repair rather than replace?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • No need to remove anything
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • A fixed quote before booking

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It typically takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Our hiring checklist

Your questions about shower tray repair in Selling

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Selling and the rest of Kent. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire shower tray and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Is it messy?

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

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

How long before I can shower?

You’ll get the exact time when we finish, usually the following day.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.

When we would advise against a repair

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

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

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

What we work on

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
