About our shower tray repair in Jesmond

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish. We work on enamelled steel, acrylic and stone resin, and people most often call us about chips caused during fitting and a cracked shower tray.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Work for landlords and builders

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

If you manage property in Jesmond, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Do not ignore a tray that flexes
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.

When to call us in Jesmond

Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

The things customers typically mention when they call include:

  • Damage around the waste
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

Before booking anyone

  • How your room will be protected
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

10 questions to ask before booking

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • What it’s made of, if you know

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

The process

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, typically until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Repairing versus replacing in Jesmond

The tray is normally the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Jesmond questions

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Jesmond?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you quote from pictures?

Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
