Shower tray repair in Wickhambreaux, done in place
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We will explain what we find. We regularly repair cast iron, acrylic and stone resin, and the jobs we see most are damage from a refit or building work and movement when you stand on it.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
When we’d advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Leaking waste fittings
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- A tray broken in more than one place

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Wickhambreaux: your questions answered
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of Kent. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you work in Wickhambreaux?
We do. Technicians travel to Wickhambreaux from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Are there extra charges for Wickhambreaux?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, usually until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Repair or replace in Wickhambreaux?
Replacing a tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
