What affects the price in Dean Bank
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
No two jobs are quite the same, 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.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Dean Bank questions
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Generally, as long as it doesn’t flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you quote from pictures?
Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Do you cover the entire of County Durham?
We work UK-wide, so Dean Bank is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the next day.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know which floor the room is on
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

More services for Dean Bank
Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Trays cracked in several places
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Dean Bank. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why us?
- Everything repaired in place
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
