How we handle shower tray repair in Oadby
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We’re frequently asked to fix damage from a refit or building work and staining and dullness across the tray, in acrylic, cast iron and enamelled steel.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Oadby and across Leicester.

What affects the price in Oadby
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Oadby. The price comes down to:
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed price
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Do you need shower tray repair in Oadby?
Cracks often start at the waste, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

- Chips on the edges
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Scuffs and light scratches

Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Leaking waste fittings
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Why repair rather than replace?
A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Why us?
- One visit for most repairs
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Rooms protected and left tidy

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.
Landlord and trade work in Oadby
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Oadby use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

The whole UK, including all of Leicester. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
The process
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
