Shower tray repair in Swanland, done in place

The first thing we do is check the tray: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll explain what we find. Typical jobs include damage around the waste and scuffs and light scratches, in ceramic, enamelled steel and cast iron.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, generally by the day after, you can use the shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Open a window if you can

  • Staining and dullness across the tray

Our hiring checklist

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Questions from Swanland

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Swanland and the rest of East Riding of Yorkshire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

How to look after the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

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.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Acrylic
  • Stone resin
  • Enamelled steel
  • Cast iron
  • Ceramic

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Landlord and trade work in Swanland

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.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
