Shower tray repair in Ewe Cote

Shower tray repair in Ewe Cote without replacing anything

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. Common call-outs are for a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and a cracked shower tray, across cast iron, ceramic and acrylic.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Landlord and trade work in Ewe Cote

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Ewe Cote questions

Do you reseal the tray as well?

We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Only if you’re sure it isn’t leaking. Look for damp or stains below.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Do you cover the entire of North Yorkshire?

We cover the entire UK, including Ewe Cote and the rest of North Yorkshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Repair or replace in Ewe Cote?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Take a look at our full price list.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. Once cured, typically by the day after, you can use the shower.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

The things customers typically mention when they call are:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Scratches in the surface

What your quote should include

  • What preparation is included
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How the colour is matched

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • One picture of the whole shower tray
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
