Signs you need shower tray repair in Saltergate
Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, usually along the edges or by the waste.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Movement when you stand on it
- Damage around the waste
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
Questions to ask before you book
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether the price covers travel
- How the colour is matched
- When it can be used again
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, generally until the day after.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Related advice
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
Common questions in Saltergate
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do you cover Saltergate?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Saltergate and the rest of North Yorkshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Saltergate, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Saltergate as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
