FAQs for Fixby

How long before I can shower?

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

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Will the price change on the day?

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

Which areas do you work in?

All of Calderdale, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

How we handle shower tray repair in Fixby

The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We will explain what we find. We work on ceramic, enamelled steel and cast iron, and people most frequently call us about a cracked shower tray and a tray that flexes.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Fixby and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What we cannot put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Trays cracked in several places

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

Materials we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

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

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray in most cases. The room is left tidy.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Rinse away soap after showering

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
