About our shower tray repair in Scarborough

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack does not come back. Whether it’s a damaged area around the waste and a cracked shower tray, we can usually put it right, on ceramic, stone resin and acrylic alike.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Medway.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tray typically means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why us?

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • No extra charge for your area
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Everything repaired in place

What happens on the day

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

10 questions to ask before booking

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, 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.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Medway and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

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

FAQs for Scarborough

Which areas do you work in?

All of Medway, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

When a repair is not the answer

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Ceramic
  • Acrylic
  • Stone resin
  • Cast iron
  • Enamelled steel

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How many areas need work
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
