Shower tray repair near Rievaulx

Shower tray repair in Rievaulx, done in place

We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We will explain what we find. Our repair technicians work on stone resin, ceramic and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are a cracked shower tray and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Questions from Rievaulx

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.

Do you cover Rievaulx?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Rievaulx for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.

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.

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.

How the visit works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear the area around the damage

Why repair rather than replace?

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. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why book with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Most jobs done in one visit
