Shower tray repair in Garthorpe, done in place
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can typically be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. If you’re dealing with chips on the edges and snagging damage in a new bathroom, we can help, whatever the material.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Leicestershire.

What we do, step by step
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for 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.
- The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the following day.
How to prepare
- Make sure the area is dry
- Open a window if you can
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice
Signs you need shower tray repair in Garthorpe
Cracks frequently start at the waste, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Chipped corners or rims
- Movement when you stand on it
- A cracked shower tray
- Scratches in the surface

What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tray typically means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Prices start from £95. 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. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.
