DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

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.

Shower tray repair in Crossgates, done in place

Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. We regularly repair ceramic, acrylic and enamelled steel, and people most frequently call us about a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and a dull, stained or worn surface.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

If you’re in Crossgates and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

FAQs for Crossgates

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you work in Crossgates?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Crossgates for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

When we would advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray broken in more than one place

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

What we work on

  • Acrylic
  • Ceramic
  • Stone resin
  • Enamelled steel
  • Cast iron

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Advice

When to call us in Crossgates

A tired-looking tray is often the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale wear the finish away.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Damage around the waste
  • A tray that flexes
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Chipped corners or rims

Choosing a repair company

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
