Shower tray repair in York Town

For landlords and businesses

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.

For anyone letting property in or around York Town, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

How we handle shower tray repair in York Town

The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We will explain what we find. Our technicians work on cast iron, stone resin and enamelled steel, and the jobs we see most are a tray that flexes and chips on the edges.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

York Town questions

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

How long does it take to cure?

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

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.

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

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

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the following day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Ensure the area is dry

Advice

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

Common problems we fix in York Town

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A cracked shower tray
  • Scratches in the surface
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Staining and dullness across the tray

Questions to ask before booking

  • How the colour is matched
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How long it needs to cure

10 questions to ask before booking

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. 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.

Getting a price from photos

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
