Shower tray repair for Keld homes

Shower tray repair in Keld without replacing anything

You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. Whether it’s movement when you stand on it and damage from a refit or building work, we can typically put it right.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in North Yorkshire.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

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

Landlord and trade work in Keld

If you manage property in Keld, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

What we’re called out for in Keld

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips generally come from dropped bottles.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • Cracks running from the waste
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Scratches in the surface

What your quote should include

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

What affects the price in Keld

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Most customers in Keld get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Keld questions

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Keld?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Honest limits

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
