When to call us in Newfoundpool

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- A damaged area around the waste
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

How we handle shower tray repair in Newfoundpool
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. Nothing is taken out, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. We work on enamelled steel, acrylic and stone resin, and common reasons people contact us are a tray that flexes and staining and dullness across the tray.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Newfoundpool
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
The process
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear the area around the damage

Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Check the seal every few months
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Newfoundpool, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Common questions in Newfoundpool
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
When can I use the shower again?
Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Newfoundpool and the rest of Leicester. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
