How we handle shower tray repair in Upchurch

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched. We regularly repair acrylic, enamelled steel and stone resin, and people most frequently call us about a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and staining and dullness across the tray.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Upchurch as everywhere else we work.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Upchurch. What changes the price is:

  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the entire shower tray

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

How the visit works

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

How to care for the repair

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

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

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Landlord and trade work in Upchurch

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Should you replace it?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What you get with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Everything repaired in place
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

See our prices page.

Common problems we fix in Upchurch

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • A crack across the base
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles

Comparing quotes

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Upchurch questions

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Upchurch and the rest of Kent. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

What areas do you cover?

All of Kent, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
