About our shower tray repair in Tenterden

Materials we repair
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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 a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
Common questions in Tenterden
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced without removing it.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
How long before I can shower?
We will give you the curing time on the day, usually the day after.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
For a price in Tenterden, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Tenterden
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
If you manage property in Tenterden, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It usually takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Ask for a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
