How we handle shower tray repair in Pelham
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack does not come back. We regularly repair ceramic, stone resin and acrylic, and common reasons people contact us are a damaged area around the waste and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
The process
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes 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.
- We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, usually by the day after, you can use the shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Open a window if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Take a look at our pricing.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Landlord and trade work in Pelham
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
When we would advise against a repair
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Trays cracked in several places
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Cast iron

Common problems we fix in Pelham
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Chips caused during fitting
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Chips on the edges
- Cracks running from the waste

How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.
