Shower tray repair in Newry, done in place
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We will tell you if that’s the case. Common call-outs are for a tray that flexes and scratches from cleaning or grit, in ceramic, acrylic and enamelled steel.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Advice
Newry: your questions answered
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Is a repair better than a new one?
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 landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Newry.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Newry and the rest of Newry and Mourne. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new shower tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
Most customers in Newry get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Newry and Mourne and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
What a repair cannot fix
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
