Shower tray repair in Tonbridge, done in place
The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that is the case. Common call-outs are for scratches in the surface and chips or cracks by the plughole, on cast iron, ceramic and acrylic.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
What affects the price in Tonbridge
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Use the extractor fan
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
When we would advise against a repair
We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
Your questions about shower tray repair in Tonbridge
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
We would stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish without removing it.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Are there extra charges for Tonbridge?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do you come to Tonbridge?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Tonbridge and the rest of Kent. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
What happens on the day
We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, usually until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Make sure the area is dry
Getting a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
