Shower Tray Repair for Kirk Smeaton homes
Problem with your shower tray in Kirk Smeaton? We repair it in place, match it on site and guarantee the work for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Movement when you stand on it
- Chips on the edges
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
How we handle shower tray repair in Kirk Smeaton
We repair a lot of shower trays. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces can all be put right without removing the tray. We regularly repair enamelled steel, ceramic and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are chips caused during fitting and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Kirk Smeaton as everywhere else we work.

Kirk Smeaton: your questions answered
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How long before I can shower?
You will get the exact time when we finish.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Often. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
What we are called out for in Kirk Smeaton
A tired-looking tray is frequently the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale wear the finish away.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Cracks running from the waste
- Chips on the edges
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Damage from a refit or building work
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How soon you can use it again
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Kirk Smeaton. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Email us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your WF8 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
