Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Haxby as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
If you manage property in Haxby, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Shower tray repair in Haxby without replacing anything
A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can usually be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We work on enamelled steel, acrylic and stone resin, and common reasons people get in touch are a tray that flexes and edge chips from dropped bottles.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Haxby as everywhere else we work.

What else we do in Haxby
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Haxby. The price reflects:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 won’t last.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Haxby questions
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
How long before I can shower?
We will give you the curing time on the day, usually the following day.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.
Do you need shower tray repair in Haxby?
Dull and stained trays are normally down to cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads strip the surface finish.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Chips caused during fitting
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Scuffs and light scratches
Before you book anyone
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Who turns up on the day
- If travel is included in the price
Repair or replace: which is better?
The tray is normally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.
