What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Hazlerigg: your questions answered

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Hazlerigg included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Typically, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Related advice

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

What a repair can’t fix

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • A tray broken in more than one place

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Hazlerigg

  • Acrylic
  • Stone resin
  • Ceramic
  • Cast iron

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Hazlerigg, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Newcastle upon Tyne and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray usually means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that and costs far less. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Hazlerigg. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
