What else we do in Barnard Castle
Do you need shower tray repair in Barnard Castle?
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them is not flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Chips on the edges
- A cracked shower tray
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
Questions to ask before you book
- How the room is protected while they work
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How soon you can use it again
- Who will actually do the work
Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Barnard Castle: your questions answered
How much does shower tray repair cost in Barnard Castle?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
We would stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.
Do you cover Barnard Castle?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Barnard Castle and the rest of County Durham. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, generally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Repair or replace in Barnard Castle?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

What affects the price in Barnard Castle
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Barnard Castle. The price comes down to:
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
If you’re in Barnard Castle and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
The process
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.
- 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.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Barnard Castle, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

- Multiple cracks across the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
