Shower tray repair in Hessle

Shower tray repair in Hessle without replacing anything

Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. Whether it’s chips on the edges and chips or cracks by the plughole, we can help, on acrylic, cast iron and ceramic alike.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Hessle and across East Riding of Yorkshire.

Hessle questions

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Can you quote from pictures?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Hessle.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

What we’re called out for in Hessle

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole

Before booking anyone

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • When it can be used again

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A photo taken from further back

Email us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your HU13 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hessle as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Repair or replace in Hessle?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is typically best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • No need to remove anything
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Colour-matched on site

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

  • Cast iron
  • Ceramic
  • Enamelled steel
  • Acrylic
  • Stone resin

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, tidy-up included.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  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. It’s left to cure, typically until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
