Shower tray repair in Hawnby, done in place

The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll explain what we find. If you are dealing with chipped corners or rims and cracks running from the waste, we can help, on cast iron, acrylic and ceramic alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Hawnby and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What happens on the day

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

FAQs for Hawnby

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, and that includes Hawnby. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What happens after I send pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.

Can you make an old tray look new?

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

Repairing versus replacing in Hawnby

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes

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

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.

Landlord and trade work in Hawnby

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • The material, if you know it
  • Details of any past repairs

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

When a repair isn’t the answer

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
