About our shower tray repair in South Luffenham
In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched. Our repair technicians work on ceramic, enamelled steel and acrylic, and people most often call us about staining and dullness across the tray and snagging damage in a new bathroom.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in South Luffenham and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally 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.
When we would advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Leaking waste fittings
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
- Cast iron

What else we do in South Luffenham
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Repairing versus replacing in South Luffenham
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How it works
We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, generally by the following day, you can use the shower.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice
Landlords, agents and businesses in South Luffenham
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in South Luffenham use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in South Luffenham, and we will reply with a fixed price.
How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Get a moving tray checked
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.
