Shower tray repair at your home in Pinchinthorpe

A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can usually be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. We work on ceramic, cast iron and stone resin, and common reasons people get in touch are a damaged area around the waste and damage from a refit or building work.

In a village like Pinchinthorpe, showers are often later additions to older homes, so we check how the tray is supported before repairing.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Should you replace it?

A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched and costs far less. Replacement in Pinchinthorpe means trades, travel and waste removal, while a repair is a single visit.

Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used. For a rural address like Pinchinthorpe, we plan the journey in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives or where to park. Everything for the shower tray repair comes with us in one trip.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space clear if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to get a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Advice

When we’d advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Acrylic

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

Signs you need shower tray repair in Pinchinthorpe

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A tray that flexes
  • A crack across the base
  • Chipped corners or rims

Rented homes near Great Ayton station (about 2.8 miles south) change hands often, and repairing shower trays between tenants is quicker than replacing them.

What your quote should include

  • Who will actually do the work
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Aftercare advice

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.
