Shower tray repair at your home in Minskip

The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We will explain what we find. If you are dealing with a tray that flexes and cracks running from the waste, we can help, on acrylic, stone resin and cast iron alike.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Minskip

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

People normally call us after spotting one of these:

  • Scratches in the surface
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • A tray that flexes

Questions to ask before booking

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How your room will be protected
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

10 questions to ask before booking

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your YO51 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Related advice

Landlords, agents and businesses in Minskip

Letting agents frequently 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.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Minskip as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Minskip questions

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Leaking waste fittings

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Acrylic
  • Stone resin
  • Ceramic
  • Cast iron
  • Enamelled steel

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A photo taken from further back

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

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.

Aftercare tips

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

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
