Trusted shower tray repair in Elvington

What affects the price in Elvington

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Elvington. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

About our shower tray repair in Elvington

If the entire tray looks tired, we can resurface it, for a clean, uniform finish. We work on stone resin, enamelled steel and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and a tray that flexes.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • No need to remove anything

Landlord and trade work in Elvington

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Elvington as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What a repair can’t fix

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
