- Chips caused during fitting
- A tray that flexes
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Shower tray repair in Oakham, done in place
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We will explain what we find. We are often asked to fix a dull, stained or worn surface and damage from a refit or building work, in stone resin, ceramic and enamelled steel.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

When a repair isn’t the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.
Repair or replace in Oakham?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let us know about parking or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Most clients in Oakham get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. 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.
FAQs for Oakham
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Can you quote from photos?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote. You’re under no obligation.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
