How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Shower tray repair in Heaton without replacing anything
The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We will explain what we find. We regularly repair acrylic, cast iron and enamelled steel, and people most often call us about chips caused during fitting and cracks running from the waste.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Newcastle upon Tyne.

How the visit works
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

What your shower tray is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
FAQs for Heaton
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
How long before I can shower?
You will get the exact time when we finish.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced without removing it.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Should you replace it?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is usually best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Heaton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
