Shower tray repair at your home in Guide Post
A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. If you’re dealing with a tray that flexes and staining and dullness across the tray, we can help, on acrylic, cast iron and enamelled steel alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Guide Post. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

What else we do in Guide Post
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
Guide Post: your questions answered
What does shower tray repair cost?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your NE62 postcode.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Do you cover the whole of Northumberland?
Across the UK, and that includes Guide Post. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Are there extra charges for Guide Post?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Do you work in Guide Post?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Guide Post and the rest of Northumberland. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
What we are called out for in Guide Post
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Chipped corners or rims
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Chips caused during fitting
- Scuffs and light scratches
What to look for in a quote
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How the room is protected while they work
- What prep work is covered
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
When we would advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Leaking waste fittings
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Guide Post
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
For landlords and businesses
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
