DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Shower tray repair at your home in Scalby
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. We work on acrylic, ceramic and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are a tray that flexes and chips on the edges.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Scalby: your questions answered
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Scalby. The price comes down to:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
If you’re in Scalby and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why book with us
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Report any creaking or movement early
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. The room is left tidy.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
