About our shower tray repair in Tunbridge Hill

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. We work on ceramic, enamelled steel and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are edge chips from dropped bottles and movement when you stand on it.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Tunbridge Hill and across Medway.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Tunbridge Hill

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

When can I use the shower again?

We will give you the curing time on the day.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Usually, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What affects the price in Tunbridge Hill

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. Once cured, usually by the next day, you can use the shower.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know about parking or access

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tunbridge Hill use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Trays cracked in several places

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Tunbridge Hill. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Report any creaking or movement early

Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.

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.
