Shower tray repair in Newby without replacing anything
We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll tell you if that’s the case. If you’re dealing with chips or cracks by the plughole and edge chips from dropped bottles, we can typically put it right.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Landlord and trade work in Newby
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, 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.
What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Newby: your questions answered
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire shower tray and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
How long does it take to cure?
We will give you the curing time on the day.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Get a moving tray checked
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
