Shower tray repair at your home in Shearsby
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can usually be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. We’re often asked to fix edge chips from dropped bottles and chips caused during fitting, on ceramic, acrylic and enamelled steel.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Shearsby as everywhere else we work.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Shearsby questions
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Leicestershire.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Do you cover the whole of Leicestershire?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Shearsby. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you quote from photos?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Use the extractor fan
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Store bottles off the tray
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Why repair rather than replace?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know which floor the room is on
