About our shower tray repair in High Handenhold
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. If you are dealing with a tray that flexes and chips on the edges, we can normally put it right, on enamelled steel, ceramic and cast iron alike.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Your questions about shower tray repair in High Handenhold
How long does it take to cure?
You’ll get the exact time when we finish, generally the following day.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
We would stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Generally, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do you cover the entire of County Durham?
Across the UK, and that includes High Handenhold. Prices do not change with location.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Should you replace it?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
What you get with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- A fixed quote before booking
- A year’s guarantee on all work

Landlord and trade work in High Handenhold
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A photo taken from further back
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Leaking waste fittings
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
