Shower tray repair for Littlebeck homes

About our shower tray repair in Littlebeck

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. We match the colour and finish. Common call-outs are for a tray that flexes and chips or cracks by the plughole, in cast iron, ceramic and enamelled steel.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

If you manage property in Littlebeck, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

The process

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your YO22 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How to care for the repair

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Report any creaking or movement early

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

Littlebeck questions

When can I use the shower again?

Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.

Do you come to Littlebeck?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Littlebeck from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Littlebeck included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray normally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that, at a fraction of the cost. Prices start from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
