About our shower tray repair in Smarden
We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. Nothing is taken out, so the enclosure and tiles aren’t disturbed. We’re often asked to fix a crack across the base and a damaged area around the waste, in enamelled steel, acrylic and cast iron.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Questions from Smarden
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.
How long before I can shower?
You’ll get the exact time when we finish, typically the day after.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Do you come to Smarden?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Smarden for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Landlord and trade work in Smarden
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Also in Smarden
Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Do you need shower tray repair in Smarden?
Heavy bottles, shower heads and dropped razors chip trays, usually along the edges or by the waste.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- A cracked shower tray
- A tray that flexes
Questions to ask before booking
- If travel is included in the price
- How long it needs to cure
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Should you replace it?
The tray is normally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Advice
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Use the extractor fan
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
