What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- Once cured, generally by the day after, you can use the shower.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your BR8 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Swanley Village
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
People usually call us after spotting one of these:
- Movement when you stand on it
- A cracked shower tray
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

- How long the guarantee is and what it covers

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Repairing versus replacing in Swanley Village
Replacing a tray generally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed price
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A photo taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Multiple cracks across the tray
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
