Need shower tray repair in Prudhoe?

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Open a window if you can
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How we handle shower tray repair in Prudhoe

You do not always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. Our repair technicians work on cast iron, acrylic and enamelled steel, and people most frequently call us about movement when you stand on it and chipped corners or rims.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

How to look after the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Rinse away soap after showering

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.

Common problems we fix in Prudhoe

Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, typically along the edges or by the waste.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Scratches in the surface
  • A cracked shower tray

Our hiring checklist

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Prudhoe. The price reflects:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Questions from Prudhoe

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you quote from pictures?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

How long does it take to cure?

We’ll give you the curing time on the day.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Prudhoe?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your NE42 postcode.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish.
