Shower tray repair at your home in Bushby
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. We’re often asked to fix a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and cracks running from the waste, in enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic.
In a village like Bushby, many shower trays are in cottages and barn conversions, where floors may be timber. We check the tray is solid before repairing a crack.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Repair or replace in Bushby?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Older homes around Bushby may have sizes and fittings that new pieces don’t match. Repairing avoids those problems.
Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Bushby questions
I let a flat near Leicester station. Can you help between tenants?
Yes, rental work is a big part of what we do, and a repair between tenants is typically quicker than replacing.
Do you work for schools and businesses in Bushby?
Yes, and we are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited. We’ll agree timings that suit the building.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Bushby?

What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bushby use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
What affects the price in Bushby
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Bushby. The price comes down to:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used. Somewhere as small as Bushby, access is normally the main thing to plan. Once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, generally until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes cost nothing and you’re under no obligation.
