How we handle shower tray repair in Stelling Minnis
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can usually be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. Our repair technicians work on ceramic, acrylic and enamelled steel, and the jobs we see most are scratches in the surface and snagging damage in a new bathroom.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Kent.

Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Check the seal every few months
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Do you need shower tray repair in Stelling Minnis?
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips generally come from dropped bottles.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Chips caused during fitting
- A tray that flexes
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Chips on the edges

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Stelling Minnis. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
