Questions from Shiptonthorpe
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Frequently. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
How much does shower tray repair cost in Shiptonthorpe?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you redo the sealant?
We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Common problems we fix in Shiptonthorpe
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
People typically call us after spotting something like this:
- Movement when you stand on it
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- A cracked shower tray

Repair or replace in Shiptonthorpe?
Replacing a tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Shiptonthorpe. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
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. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
When we’d advise against a repair
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Leaking waste fittings
- Multiple cracks across the tray
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
- Enamelled steel
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Store bottles off the tray
- Ventilate the room after showers
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know which floor the room is on
How to get a price
