How we handle shower tray repair in Nanpantan
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. We regularly repair stone resin, ceramic and acrylic, and common reasons people contact us are scratches in the surface and staining and dullness across the tray.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Leicestershire.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A picture taken from further back
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Landlord and trade work in Nanpantan
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Common questions in Nanpantan
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Only if you are sure it is not leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
When we would advise against a repair
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
- Cast iron
Signs you need shower tray repair in Nanpantan
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
Common reasons people in Nanpantan contact us are:
- Cracks running from the waste
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Chips on the edges
Before you book anyone
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How long it needs to cure
- How the room is protected while they work
- What preparation is included
What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- 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 following day.
How to prepare
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Should you replace it?
Replacing a tray generally means removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
