How we handle shower tray repair in South Wigston
If the entire tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish without removing the screen or tiles. Our repair technicians work on enamelled steel, cast iron and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are damage from a refit or building work and chips or cracks by the plughole.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in South Wigston and across Leicester.

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
South Wigston: your questions answered
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in South Wigston?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your LE18 postcode.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Do you work in South Wigston?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to South Wigston for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What we can’t put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What else we do in South Wigston
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
What we are called out for in South Wigston
Cracks often start at the waste, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.
People typically call us when they notice something like this:
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Damage around the waste
- A cracked shower tray
- Chips caused during fitting

What affects the price in South Wigston
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for South Wigston. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- The material, if you know it
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a tray generally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
What you get with us
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
