Shower tray repair at your home in Packington
A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. Typical jobs include a damaged area around the waste and scuffs and light scratches, across cast iron, stone resin and ceramic.
Somewhere like Packington, showers are often in converted or older buildings, where timber floors can move. A crack is only repaired once we know the tray is firm.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Replacement in Packington means trades, travel and waste removal, while shower tray repair is one trip.
Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Common questions in Packington
Do you work for schools and businesses in Packington?
Yes, we work for schools, leisure centres and businesses. Photos and a few details are enough for a quote.
Will you travel to Packington?
Of course; we work in small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking when you book.
How long does it take to cure?
Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Do you cover the whole of Leicestershire?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Packington. Prices don’t change with location.
Do you work in Packington?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Packington from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Packington, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Check the seal every few months
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Report any creaking or movement early
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Do you need shower tray repair in Packington?
Heavy bottles, shower heads and dropped razors chip trays, typically on the edges or near the plughole.
Look out for these signs:
- Chipped corners or rims
- Cracks running from the waste
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Movement when you stand on it
We also work for schools, leisure centres and businesses, so if you look after a building such as Packington Church of England Primary School, changing-room showers can be repaired in place too.

Advice
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.
