Shower tray repair for Shepway homes

Repairs by material

Ceramic

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

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Shower tray repair at your home in Shepway

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. We work on stone resin, ceramic and acrylic, and people most often call us about chips caused during fitting and staining and dullness across the tray.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

What a repair cannot fix

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Trays cracked in several places

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Your questions about shower tray repair in Shepway

How do I book?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Do I have to be there?

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

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Shepway. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Normally, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

The process

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

How to get a price

Advice

Landlord and trade work in Shepway

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

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