Shower tray repair & resurfacing in Kirkby, North Yorkshire
Shower tray chip, crack and scratch repairs and resurfacing at your home in Kirkby, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Repairs from £95
- A damaged area around the waste
- A dull, stained or worn surface
How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Kirkby
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Kirkby.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Multiple cracks across the tray
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 generally cheaper.
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.

The process
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, normally until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice
Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Should you replace it?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

What affects the price in Kirkby
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
