Shower tray repair in North Stainley

Should you replace it?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for North Stainley. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How we handle shower tray repair in North Stainley

We repair plenty of shower trays. Chips by the waste, cracks across the base and dull, stained surfaces can all be put right without removing the tray. We work on cast iron, acrylic and stone resin, and people most frequently call us about a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and movement when you stand on it.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Landlords, agents and businesses in North Stainley

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

What we are called out for in North Stainley

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

People normally call us after spotting something like this:

  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

What your quote should include

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Different materials, different repairs

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 are filled and matched to the surface.

What we cannot put right

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

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

Materials we repair

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

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.

  1. We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, you can use the shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

North Stainley questions

Do you work in North Stainley?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to North Stainley. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
