How we handle shower tray repair in Bishopwearmouth
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched. We work on cast iron, acrylic and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are a crack across the base and damage around the waste.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
- What the surface is made of
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
You don’t need a survey visit. 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 price.

What we can’t put right

- Multiple cracks across the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

What we work on
- Enamelled steel
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, you can use the shower.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the area is dry
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Open a window if you can

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Bishopwearmouth
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.
Repair or replace in Bishopwearmouth?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
