Shower tray repair & resurfacing in Sapcote, Leicestershire
Fixed-price shower tray repair in Sapcote and the surrounding area, done in a single visit in most cases.
- Repairs from £95
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Scratches in the surface
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Store bottles off the tray
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.

What else we do in Sapcote
Landlord and trade work in Sapcote
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Sapcote. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why book with us
- We leave the room as we found it
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
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.
How the visit works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear the area around the damage
