How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Ventilate the room after showers
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
Shower tray repair at your home in Rathmell
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack does not come back. Whether it’s damage around the waste and snagging damage in a new bathroom, we can help.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Rathmell and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, normally until the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Rathmell questions
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Do you cover the whole of North Yorkshire?
Everywhere in the UK, Rathmell included. Travel is included in the price.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
How long does it take to cure?
We will give you the curing time on the day.

Different materials, different repairs
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.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
- A picture taken from further back
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Rathmell, and we will reply with a fixed price.
When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tray generally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
