Shower tray repair in Berwick without replacing anything

A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can usually be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. If you’re dealing with chips on the edges and staining and dullness across the tray, we can normally put it right, on stone resin, acrylic and cast iron alike.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Related advice

Berwick questions

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Do you come to Berwick?

We do. We send a technician to Berwick for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How long does it take to cure?

Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach

Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

When to call us in Berwick

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks usually point to an uneven base.

Look out for these signs:

  • Cracks running from the waste
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles

What to look for in a quote

  • How the colour is matched
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

How to compare quotes

Honest limits

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray that moves underfoot

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
