Shower tray repair for Hawsker homes

How we handle shower tray repair in Hawsker

We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We will tell you if that is the case. Our technicians work on cast iron, ceramic and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are staining and dullness across the tray and movement when you stand on it.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Hawsker and across North Yorkshire.

Hawsker: your questions answered

Can you price it without visiting?

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

Do I have to be there?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

When can I use the shower again?

Typically the next day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.

Do you cover Hawsker?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Hawsker. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We leave the room clean.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode

If you’re in Hawsker and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Why repair rather than replace?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
