Shower tray repair for Walkington homes

Landlord and trade work in Walkington

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Walkington as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Shower tray repair in Walkington without replacing anything

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. We regularly repair acrylic, ceramic and stone resin, and people most often call us about damage around the waste and a crack across the base.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

FAQs for Walkington

How long does it take to cure?

We will give you the curing time on the day, generally the next day.

Which areas do you work in?

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

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Do you redo the sealant?

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

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

When to call us in Walkington

Cracks frequently start at the waste, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • A crack across the base
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How to look after the finish
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How changes to the job are handled

Choosing a repair company

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

If you’re in Walkington and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

When a repair isn’t the answer

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

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.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Repairing versus replacing in Walkington

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

How the visit works

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, normally until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
