About our shower tray repair in Thurlaston
If the whole tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish without removing the screen or tiles. Whether it’s chips or cracks by the plughole and chips caused during fitting, we can normally put it right, on stone resin, cast iron and acrylic alike.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Leicestershire.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Should you replace it?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What else we do in Thurlaston
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use the extractor fan
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Get a moving tray checked
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
What a repair cannot fix
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Leaking waste fittings
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Stone resin
- Acrylic

What happens on the day
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- 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

- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
