How we handle shower tray repair in Ewden Village

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the enclosure and tiles are not disturbed. We are often asked to fix scratches from cleaning or grit and chips caused during fitting, across 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.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ewden Village

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Questions from Ewden Village

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What areas do you cover?

All of Barnsley, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Is it messy?

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

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

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

How long does it take to cure?

Normally by the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.

Do you come to Ewden Village?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Ewden Village and the rest of Barnsley. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Honest limits

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • A tray broken in more than one place

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Our hiring checklist

The process

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find 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. Once cured, usually by the day after, you can use the shower.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Open a window if you can
