Common questions in South Ossett
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Common problems we fix in South Ossett
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks generally point to an uneven base.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- A damaged area around the waste
- A crack across the base
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
Comparing quotes
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

How the visit works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, tidy-up included.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- 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 typically usable the following day.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Store bottles off the tray
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
When we’d advise against a repair
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Trays cracked in several places
- Leaking waste fittings
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in South Ossett
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tray generally means removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Why us?
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Most jobs done in one visit
