Need shower tray repair in Wrotham Heath?

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.

How we handle shower tray repair in Wrotham Heath

A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. Whether it’s a cracked shower tray and damage around the waste, we can help, on enamelled steel, stone resin and acrylic alike.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Wrotham Heath

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips generally come from dropped bottles.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Chips caused during fitting

What to look for in a quote

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

10 questions to ask before booking

When we’d advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why book with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Wrotham Heath: your questions answered

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish without removing it.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

When can I use the shower again?

Normally by the following day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do you cover the whole of Kent?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

The process

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Open a window if you can
