How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice
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. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Landlord and trade work in New Hunwick
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in New Hunwick use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
- Cast iron

Questions from New Hunwick
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including New Hunwick and the rest of County Durham. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, usually with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Often. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Do you need shower tray repair in New Hunwick?

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
Questions to ask before you book
