Need shower tray repair in Glasshouses?

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

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

Materials we work on in Glasshouses

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

Shower tray repair in Glasshouses without replacing anything

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. Whether it’s movement when you stand on it and a damaged area around the waste, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. 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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

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

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Common problems we fix in Glasshouses

Dull and stained trays are typically down to cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale strip the surface finish.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • A crack across the base

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in North Yorkshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Glasshouses

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Usually, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Glasshouses?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Do you come to Glasshouses?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Glasshouses and the rest of North Yorkshire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced without removing it.

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find 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 colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. Once cured, generally by the following day, you can use the shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price
