Shower tray repair at your home in Rickerby
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We will tell you if that is the case. We regularly repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic, and people most often call us about a dull, stained or worn surface and cracks running from the waste.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 often lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Store bottles off the tray
- Use the extractor fan
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we leave the room as we found it.
- 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.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, generally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know about parking or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Signs you need shower tray repair in Rickerby
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Chips typically come from dropped bottles.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- A crack across the base
- Damage around the waste
- Scratches in the surface
- Staining and dullness across the tray
Comparing quotes
- How the colour is matched
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
