Shower tray repair in Ferryhill without replacing anything
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We will explain what we find. Typical jobs include chipped corners or rims and scratches from cleaning or grit, in ceramic, cast iron and enamelled steel.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Ferryhill and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
What you get with us
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- We leave the room as we found it
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Everything repaired in place

When to call us in Ferryhill
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Chips typically come from dropped bottles.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Chipped corners or rims
- Cracks running from the waste
- A tray that flexes
- Scratches in the surface
Comparing quotes

- How long it needs to cure
How the visit works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, including clearing up.
- We ensure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, you can use the shower.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Ask for a price
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Ferryhill, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Ferryhill
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do you cover Ferryhill?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Ferryhill for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- A tray that moves underfoot
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
