Shower tray repair & resurfacing in Leadgate, Cumbria

- Repairs from £95
- Cracks running from the waste

What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Shower tray repair in Leadgate without replacing anything
If the entire tray looks tired, we can resurface it, for a clean, uniform finish without removing the screen or tiles. Our technicians work on stone resin, enamelled steel and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are scratches in the surface and damage from a refit or building work.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cumbria.

Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Get a moving tray checked
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Leaking waste fittings
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder

FAQs for Leadgate
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Do you work in Leadgate?
We do. Technicians travel to Leadgate from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
How long before I can shower?
You will get the exact time when we finish.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
