For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Shower tray repair in Milby without replacing anything

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. Whether it’s scratches in the surface and damage from a refit or building work, we can usually put it right, on enamelled steel, cast iron and ceramic alike.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Report any creaking or movement early

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Milby. The price comes down to:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your YO51 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

Questions from Milby

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you come to Milby?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Milby from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Are there extra charges for Milby?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, generally until the day after.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • A crack across the base
