Trusted shower tray repair in Chapelthorpe

Shower tray repair at your home in Chapelthorpe

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. We work on acrylic, enamelled steel and ceramic, and people most often call us about damage from a refit or building work and a damaged area around the waste.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Repair or replace in Chapelthorpe?

A new shower tray normally involves 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. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

Chapelthorpe questions

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

What happens after I send photos?

You will get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

The process

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Chapelthorpe

Cracks often start at the waste, because that is where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Damage around the waste
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Scuffs and light scratches

10 questions to ask before you book

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the whole shower tray

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Chapelthorpe, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
