Daddry Shield: your questions answered
What areas do you cover?
The whole UK, including all of County Durham. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
How long before I can shower?
Normally by the following day. We’ll confirm before we leave.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
About our shower tray repair in Daddry Shield
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. Common call-outs are for a dull, stained or worn surface and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, on enamelled steel, stone resin and acrylic.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in County Durham.

Should you replace it?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Store bottles off the tray
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
How it works
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole 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 day after.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Related advice
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 it’s worth repairing early.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
