Shower tray repair in Pickmere without replacing anything
Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes are all things we fix in place. We’re often asked to fix damage around the waste and a tray that flexes, on acrylic, cast iron and enamelled steel.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

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.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Check the seal every few months
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Store bottles off the tray
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Questions from Pickmere
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
When can I use the shower again?
Typically the following day. We will confirm before we leave.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Pickmere
If you manage property in Pickmere, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Pickmere
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
- Stone resin

- Enamelled steel
Common problems we fix in Pickmere
Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Cracks running from the waste
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
