Landlord and trade work in Upper Ifield
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Kent and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Shower tray repair in Upper Ifield, done in place
The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. Typical jobs include a tray that flexes and scratches from cleaning or grit, on acrylic, ceramic and enamelled steel.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

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.

How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray in most cases. The room is left tidy.
- We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the following day.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Upper Ifield questions
Do you work in Upper Ifield?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Upper Ifield and the rest of Kent. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish without removing it.
How long does it take to cure?
We’ll give you the curing time on the day.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
- Colour-matched on site
- One visit for most repairs
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
