Shower tray repair in Leachkin, done in place
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack doesn’t come back. We work on cast iron, acrylic and ceramic, and people most frequently call us about chips caused during fitting and staining and dullness across the tray.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Common questions in Leachkin
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Do you come to Leachkin?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Leachkin. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
How much does shower tray repair cost in Leachkin?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
We would stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish without removing it.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Leaking waste fittings
- Trays cracked in several places

Materials we repair
- Acrylic
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Do you need shower tray repair in Leachkin?
Cracks frequently start at the waste, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.

How it works
We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, usually until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your IV3 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Leachkin. The price comes down to:
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Repair or replace in Leachkin?
A new shower tray generally means removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
