How we handle shower tray repair in Little Houghton
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. If you’re dealing with cracks running from the waste and movement when you stand on it, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Barnsley.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Little Houghton
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
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.

What a repair cannot fix
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
- Stone resin
The process
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, including clearing up.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the day after.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Little Houghton questions
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Barnsley, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
When can I use the shower again?
We will give you the curing time on the day, typically the next day.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
Repairing versus replacing in Little Houghton
Replacing a tray normally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
