Common problems we fix in Skelton on Ure

  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Chips on the edges
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit

10 questions to ask before booking

Shower tray repair in Skelton on Ure without replacing anything

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack does not come back. We work on cast iron, stone resin and enamelled steel, and people most often call us about chips caused during fitting and chips on the edges.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

What affects the price in Skelton on Ure

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage
  • The material

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send pictures for a quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

If you’re in Skelton on Ure and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Landlord and trade work in Skelton on Ure

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Skelton on Ure as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

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.
