Questions from Benfieldside
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
Why repair rather than replace?
The tray is normally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Store bottles off the tray
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
- A picture taken from further back
Upload pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Benfieldside, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Benfieldside
A tired-looking tray is frequently the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale strip the surface finish.
The things clients generally mention when they call are:
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- A damaged area around the waste
- Chips on the edges
- Scuffs and light scratches
What to look for in a quote
- How your room will be protected
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What preparation is included
- When it can be used again
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Trays cracked in several places
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
- Cast iron
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Benfieldside as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Ask for a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
