Shower tray repair & resurfacing in Killingworth, North Tyneside
Damaged shower tray in Killingworth? We put it right where it is, match it on site and guarantee the work for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- A cracked shower tray
- Damage around the waste
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
About our shower tray repair in Killingworth
A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can usually be repaired in place, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Common call-outs are for a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and scratches from cleaning or grit, in cast iron, ceramic and stone resin.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

FAQs for Killingworth
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Killingworth.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
How long before I can shower?
Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
When to call us in Killingworth
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks typically point to an uneven base.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Damage from a refit or building work
- A cracked shower tray
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Edge chips from dropped bottles

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
How it works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, normally until the day after.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Killingworth. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
