Choosing a repair company

Repairs by material

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. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What a repair cannot fix

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray that moves underfoot

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

Materials we repair

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

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It generally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, generally until the day after.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Common questions in Throwley

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Do you cover the whole of Kent?

All of Kent, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Do you cover Throwley?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Throwley from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
