About our shower tray repair in Yaverland

If the whole tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish without removing the screen or tiles. We’re often asked to fix movement when you stand on it and a damaged area around the waste, in ceramic, cast iron and enamelled steel.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Should you replace it?

A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

Landlord and trade work in Yaverland

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

Yaverland questions

When can I use the shower again?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

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

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
