Shower tray repair in Great Smeaton, done in place

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We work on ceramic, cast iron and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and scratches in the surface.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  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 whole tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
  5. Once cured, usually by the day after, you can use the shower.

When a repair is not the answer

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

  • Ceramic
  • Enamelled steel
  • Acrylic
  • Cast iron

Common questions in Great Smeaton

Are there extra charges for Great Smeaton?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Can you quote from photos?

Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How long before I can shower?

We’ll give you the curing time on the day.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Usually, as long as it does not flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

What we’re called out for in Great Smeaton

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Damage around the waste
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Chips on the edges

Questions to ask before you book

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • If travel is included in the price
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Choosing a repair company

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

For landlords and businesses

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

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

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

If you’re in Great Smeaton and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
