Shower tray repair in Cresswell, done in place
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. Our technicians work on stone resin, acrylic and cast iron, and common reasons people get in touch are snagging damage in a new bathroom and chipped corners or rims.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

What affects the price in Cresswell
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A picture taken from further back
- Any details about the material
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
How it works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Repairing versus replacing in Cresswell
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
What you get with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Work done at your home or business
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- One-year guarantee on every repair
Take a look at our full price list.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
Signs you need shower tray repair in Cresswell
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Chips caused during fitting
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- A crack across the base

FAQs for Cresswell
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Do you cover the whole of Northumberland?
The whole UK, including all of Northumberland. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
We would stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Trays cracked in several places
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
