How we handle shower tray repair in High Ackworth
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. We’re often asked to fix cracks running from the waste and scuffs and light scratches, on stone resin, cast iron and ceramic.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
High Ackworth: your questions answered
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
How long does it take to cure?
Normally by the following day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed price. There is no obligation to book.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Repair or replace in High Ackworth?
The tray is normally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What affects the price in High Ackworth
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
How the visit works
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. 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 is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, you can use the shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Get a quote
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

When we would advise against a repair
