Shower tray repair in Tickton without replacing anything
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll explain what we find. We work on cast iron, ceramic and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are a damaged area around the waste and scratches from cleaning or grit.
In a village like Tickton, showers are often later additions to older homes, and we always check the tray’s support first.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in East Riding of Yorkshire.

What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Tickton. The price depends on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
- A picture taken from further back
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Tickton
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
When to call us in Tickton
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
People usually call us when they notice something like this:
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Cracks running from the waste
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
We also work for schools, leisure centres and businesses, so if you look after a building such as Beverley High School, changing-room showers can be repaired in place too.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
When we’d advise against a repair
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Repair or replace: which is better?
The tray is usually the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. In an older home in a village like Tickton, replacing a shower tray can be harder than it sounds: original pieces may not match modern sizes, and access can be awkward. Repairing avoids those problems.
Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

FAQs for Tickton
Do you take on commercial work in Tickton?
Yes, commercial work is part of what we do. Send pictures and details of the building.
I let a flat near Beverley station. Can you help between tenants?
Yes, rental work is a big part of what we do, and a repair between tenants is generally quicker than replacing.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
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.
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Use the extractor fan
- Get a moving tray checked
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition 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.
