10 questions to ask before you book

Shower tray repair at your home in New Earswick

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack does not come back. If you are dealing with chips caused during fitting and staining and dullness across the tray, we can help.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Can landlords book you?

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

Can you quote from pictures?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  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 strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

For landlords and businesses

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

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

What affects the price in New Earswick

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for New Earswick. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your YO32 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Report any creaking or movement early

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
