Shower tray repair in Newman's End, done in place
The first thing we do is check the tray: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We will tell you if that is the case. We’re often asked to fix chips caused during fitting and cracks running from the waste, on acrylic, enamelled steel and ceramic.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Newman's End. The price comes down to:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send photos for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A picture taken from further back
Getting a price is easy: 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. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

What else we do in Newman's End
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
FAQs for Newman's End
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
We would stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
When can I use the shower again?
We’ll give you the curing time on the day.

How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- 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.
- It’s left to cure, usually until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Ventilate the room after showers
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
