Shower tray repair in Bootham without replacing anything
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack does not come back. Our repair technicians work on stone resin, cast iron and enamelled steel, and common reasons people get in touch are a crack across the base and chips on the edges.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in York.

What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Bootham. The price comes down to:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Use the extractor fan
- Check the seal every few months
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Advice
Repairing versus replacing in Bootham
Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. 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 make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why book with us
- Most jobs done in one visit
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- No extra charge for your area
