Shower tray repair for Little Crakehall homes

The process

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures 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.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Should you replace it?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why book with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • One visit for most repairs

How to look after the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

When to call us in Little Crakehall

A tired-looking tray is often the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale strip the surface finish.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Damage around the waste
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • A crack across the base
  • Chips on the edges

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

What affects the price in Little Crakehall

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Questions from Little Crakehall

Do you cover Little Crakehall?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Little Crakehall and the rest of North Yorkshire. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

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

Landlord and trade work in Little Crakehall

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.
