How we handle shower tray repair in Skelmanthorpe
We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We’re frequently asked to fix cracks running from the waste and damage from a refit or building work, across stone resin, enamelled steel and ceramic.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Honest limits
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Leaking waste fittings
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Should you replace it?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is usually best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Skelmanthorpe
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
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.
How it works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, usually by the next day, you can use the shower.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
Common questions in Skelmanthorpe
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
How long before I can shower?
Usually the next day. We will confirm before we leave.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Do you cover Skelmanthorpe?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Skelmanthorpe and the rest of Kirklees. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Common problems we fix in Skelmanthorpe
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Chips generally come from dropped bottles.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Damage around the waste
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
