Trusted shower tray repair in Littlethorpe

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A photo taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Most clients in Littlethorpe get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

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

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

When we would advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray that moves underfoot

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

  • Ceramic
  • Stone resin
  • Enamelled steel
  • Cast iron

Littlethorpe: your questions answered

What areas do you cover?

All of North Yorkshire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Normally, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Only if you’re sure it isn’t leaking. Look for damp or stains below.

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

How long before I can shower?

Normally the day after. We will confirm before we leave.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Repair or replace in Littlethorpe?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What you get with us

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Littlethorpe as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area 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 care for 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. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, usually by the next day, you can use the shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Open a window if you can

Getting a price

Email us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Littlethorpe, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Common problems we fix in Littlethorpe

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips usually come from dropped bottles.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A tray that flexes
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • A dull, stained or worn surface

What to look for in a quote

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How to care for the finish
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
