Shower tray repair & resurfacing in Belgrave, Leicester
Our repair technicians come to Belgrave for shower tray chip, crack and scratch repairs and resurfacing. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Shower tray repair in Belgrave without replacing anything
If the whole tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish. We work on cast iron, stone resin and enamelled steel, and the jobs we see most are cracks running from the waste and chips or cracks by the plughole.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repairing versus replacing in Belgrave
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Trays cracked in several places
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Belgrave
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks usually point to an uneven base.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Scratches in the surface
- Cracks running from the waste
- A tray that flexes
- A dull, stained or worn surface
What to look for in a quote
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- If travel is included in the price
How it works
We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the next day.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
