Shower tray repair in East Carlton without replacing anything

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched. We regularly repair cast iron, acrylic and stone resin, and the jobs we see most are chips or cracks by the plughole and cracks running from the waste.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. Once cured, typically by the following day, you can use the shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

How to care for the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Report any creaking or movement early

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Should you replace it?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Questions from East Carlton

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including East Carlton and the rest of Leeds. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Honest limits

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
