The process
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Get a moving tray checked
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
What else we do in Thorpe Hesley
What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Your questions about shower tray repair in Thorpe Hesley
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
When can I use the shower again?
Normally the day after. We’ll confirm before we leave.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you come to Thorpe Hesley?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Thorpe Hesley from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new shower tray generally means removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Do you need shower tray repair in Thorpe Hesley?
Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- A tray that flexes
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Damage around the waste
Questions to ask before you book
- What preparation is included
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether they match the colour on site
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
