Shower tray repair at your home in Westwood
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. Common call-outs are for staining and dullness across the tray and scratches in the surface, across ceramic, acrylic and cast iron.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Kent.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new shower tray typically means removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Kent and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
What affects the price in Westwood
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Westwood. The price comes down to:
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

The process
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, typically by the next day, you can use the shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
If you are in Westwood and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
