Trusted shower tray repair in Wanshurst Green

What affects the price in Wanshurst Green

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Wanshurst Green. The price comes down to:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Shower tray repair in Wanshurst Green, done in place

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 so the repair blends in. We regularly repair acrylic, enamelled steel and stone resin, and people most often call us about a dull, stained or worn surface and a crack across the base.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Kent.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Wanshurst Green

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Frequently. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

How long before I can shower?

Typically the day after. We will confirm before we leave.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

We would stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

How to care for the repair

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Should you replace it?

A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that, at a fraction of the cost. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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 play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
