Ashington questions
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Ashington and the rest of Dorset. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Ashington?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, usually until the next day.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Related advice
What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 won’t last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
When we’d advise against a repair
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- A tray broken in more than one place
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Stone resin
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Use the extractor fan
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.
