How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Longbenton. The price comes down to:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Longbenton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • Something in shot to show the size

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.

Shower tray repair in Longbenton, done in place

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. Common call-outs are for movement when you stand on it and scuffs and light scratches, across ceramic, acrylic and cast iron.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Longbenton and across North Tyneside.

What we can’t put right

We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Should you replace it?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

The process

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, tidy-up included.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, normally until the day after.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Ask for a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
