Shower tray repair & resurfacing in Thorpe Arnold, Leicestershire
Shower tray repair across Thorpe Arnold and nearby, typically in one visit and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- A crack across the base
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.
Shower tray repair in Thorpe Arnold, done in place
We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We will explain what we find. Whether it’s scratches in the surface and chips on the edges, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

How it works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the next day.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
