Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
Shower tray repair at your home in Askrigg
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. Common call-outs are for damage from a refit or building work and a crack across the base, on acrylic, enamelled steel and cast iron.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
What affects the price in Askrigg
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Askrigg. The price reflects:
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A photo taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Should you replace it?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Askrigg. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Askrigg
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Askrigg use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

Askrigg questions
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Askrigg?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
How long does it take to cure?
Generally the day after. We will confirm before we leave.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
