For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Gateshead and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Burnopfield: your questions answered
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Do you work in Burnopfield?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Burnopfield. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Burnopfield.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the following day.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Burnopfield, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you cannot see.

How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote

- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the entire shower tray
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
