The process

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Related advice

Do you need shower tray repair in West Burton?

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks normally point to an uneven base.

Customers usually contact us about:

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • A damaged area around the waste

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • When it can be used again
  • Aftercare advice

Choosing a repair company

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that and costs far less. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Generally one visit, start to finish

FAQs for West Burton

How long before I can shower?

Normally the following day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

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.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What your shower tray is made of matters

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.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

What affects the price in West Burton

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for West Burton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in North Yorkshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Honest limits

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
