How we handle shower tray repair in Rawcliffe
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. Typical jobs include a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and edge chips from dropped bottles, in acrylic, enamelled steel and ceramic.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Common questions in Rawcliffe
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Do you cover the entire of East Riding of Yorkshire?
We cover the whole UK, including Rawcliffe and the rest of East Riding of Yorkshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Rawcliffe
Cracks frequently start at the waste, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.
The things customers normally mention when they call are:
- Movement when you stand on it
- Chips on the edges
- A cracked shower tray
- Chips caused during fitting
Questions to ask before booking
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What protection goes down before work starts
Why repair rather than replace?
A new shower tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What we cannot put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Leaking waste fittings
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Stone resin
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
