How we handle shower tray repair in Backworth
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. If you are dealing with a crack across the base and chips or cracks by the plughole, we can generally put it right, on enamelled steel, stone resin and ceramic alike.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Backworth and across North Tyneside.

FAQs for Backworth
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across North Tyneside.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 frequently lifts.
Repairing versus replacing in Backworth
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why book with us
- Normally one visit, start to finish
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

What else we do in Backworth
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Check the seal every few months
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
