Repairing versus replacing in Heckmondwike
A new shower tray typically means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why us?
- Everything repaired in place
- One price list for the entire UK
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Most jobs done in one visit
See our prices page.
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
- The type of damage
- The size and number of damaged areas
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Heckmondwike. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your WF16 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
Landlord and trade work in Heckmondwike
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
Questions from Heckmondwike
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish without removing it.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Kirklees.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
