Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Shower tray repair in Brandsby, done in place
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. We’re often asked to fix chips caused during fitting and a dull, stained or worn surface, in ceramic, cast iron and enamelled steel.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Should you replace it?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, generally by the following day, you can use the shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Ensure the area is dry
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Check the seal every few months
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Rinse away soap after showering
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
If you manage property in Brandsby, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

When to call us in Brandsby
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A crack across the base
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- A damaged area around the waste
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom

What we can’t put right
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Common questions in Brandsby
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do you cover the entire of North Yorkshire?
Across the UK, so Brandsby is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
