Trusted shower tray repair in Ruston

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match

Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A photo taken from further back

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

Shower tray repair at your home in Ruston

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. We’re often asked to fix a cracked shower tray and chipped corners or rims, on cast iron, acrylic and stone resin.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Our hiring checklist

Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Ruston questions

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Generally, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray for most jobs. The room is left tidy.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the day after.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Advice

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ruston

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in North Yorkshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Stick to gentle cleaners

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
