- Chips on the edges
- Damage around the waste

How we handle shower tray repair in Hickmans Green
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. Common call-outs are for a dull, stained or worn surface and chipped corners or rims, across stone resin, enamelled steel and acrylic.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Compared with replacing, repairing normally 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
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
If you are in Hickmans Green and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
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.
Honest limits
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel

Hickmans Green questions
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do you cover the entire of Kent?
Across the UK, so Hickmans Green is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a tray generally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
