How to look after the repair

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Shower tray repair in Yelvertoft, done in place

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. Typical jobs include a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and movement when you stand on it, in ceramic, stone resin and cast iron.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For a price in Yelvertoft, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Common problems we fix in Yelvertoft

A tired-looking tray is frequently the result of years of cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads strip the surface finish.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • A crack across the base
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • A tray that flexes

Questions from Yelvertoft

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced without removing it.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

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

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Yelvertoft.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Do I have to be there?

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

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Yelvertoft as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Northamptonshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 often lifts.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
