Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Shower tray repair at your home in Little Benton

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. Typical jobs include chips or cracks by the plughole and a tray that flexes, in acrylic, stone resin and enamelled steel.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

Repair or replace in Little Benton?

A new shower tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. We don’t 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.

Why us?

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Little Benton. The price reflects:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Little Benton, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

FAQs for Little Benton

Do you reseal the tray as well?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Do you cover the whole of Newcastle upon Tyne?

Everywhere in the UK, Little Benton included. Travel is included in the price.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Do you cover Little Benton?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Little Benton and the rest of Newcastle upon Tyne. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we work on in Little Benton

  • Acrylic
  • Stone resin
  • Ceramic
  • Cast iron
  • Enamelled steel

When to call us in Little Benton

The waste is a common starting point for cracks, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • A tray that flexes
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles

Questions to ask before booking

  • How soon you can use it again
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether the price covers travel

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is normally usable the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
