Shower tray repair at your home in Staxton

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. We regularly repair ceramic, stone resin and acrylic, and people most frequently call us about a dull, stained or worn surface and damage around the waste.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Staxton and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Staxton. The price comes down to:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Most clients in Staxton get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What we’re called out for in Staxton

Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips normally come from dropped bottles.

Most people contact us when they notice one of these:

  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles

Before booking anyone

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How long it needs to cure

10 questions to ask before booking

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Staxton

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Staxton?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
