Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Store bottles off the tray
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
What we cannot put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Questions from Heworth
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Frequently. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Heworth and the rest of Newcastle upon Tyne. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you work in Heworth?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Heworth for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Only if you are sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Repair or replace in Heworth?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Heworth. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Landlord and trade work in Heworth
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
What happens on the day
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, you can use the shower.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the area is dry
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
