Shower tray repair in Eastgate, done in place
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack doesn’t come back. We work on enamelled steel, acrylic and stone resin, and common reasons people get in touch are a tray that flexes and chips or cracks by the plughole.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in County Durham.

Repair or replace in Eastgate?
The tray is normally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Common questions in Eastgate
How long before I can shower?
You will get the exact time when we finish, typically the following day.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Only if you are sure it is not leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
Do you work in Eastgate?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Eastgate for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, generally by the day after, you can use the shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice
Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Trays cracked in several places
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

What shower tray repair costs

- The colour and finish to match

Quotes from your pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
