Shower tray repair at your home in Whitby
You don’t always need a new tray. If it’s solid underneath, it can usually be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. Whether it’s edge chips from dropped bottles and scuffs and light scratches, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, generally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Getting a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Whitby. What changes the price is:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your CH65 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Check the seal every few months
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
Do you need shower tray repair in Whitby?
The waste is a common starting point for cracks, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Chipped corners or rims
- Staining and dullness across the tray
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- A damaged area around the waste
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What prep work is covered
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- When it can be used again
Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
