Shower tray repair at your home in North Cowton
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. Whether it’s snagging damage in a new bathroom and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

The process
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, generally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Trays cracked in several places
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

FAQs for North Cowton
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Only if you’re sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Check the seal every few months
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.
Landlord and trade work in North Cowton
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in North Cowton use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Should you replace it?
The tray is usually the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for North Cowton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why us?
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Everything repaired in place
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- Most jobs done in one visit

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
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. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
