Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Shower tray repair in Quayside without replacing anything
You do not always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. Common call-outs are for a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and damage around the waste, across stone resin, acrylic and enamelled steel.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

What affects the price in Quayside
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
- The size and number of damaged areas
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Quayside. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your NE1 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.

- Clear the area around the damage

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Ventilate the room after showers
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.
Common problems we fix in Quayside
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A tray that flexes
- A crack across the base
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Scuffs and light scratches
Questions to ask before booking

Your questions about shower tray repair in Quayside
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.
Do you cover Quayside?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Quayside and the rest of Newcastle upon Tyne. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Newcastle upon Tyne.
Should you replace it?
A new shower tray generally means removing the screen and tiling, preparing a new base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
