Common problems we fix in Youlthorpe

People usually call us when they notice something like this:
- A crack across the base
- Movement when you stand on it
- Scratches in the surface
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
Questions to ask before you book

Shower tray repair in Youlthorpe without replacing anything

Landlords, agents and businesses in Youlthorpe
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, usually by the next day, you can use the shower.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice
Youlthorpe questions
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across East Riding of Yorkshire.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

Repair or replace: which is better?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Trays cracked in several places
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Use the extractor fan
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Store bottles off the tray
- Report any creaking or movement early
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
