Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
About our shower tray repair in Ridsdale
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. We work on acrylic, cast iron and enamelled steel, and people most often call us about a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and scratches from cleaning or grit.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Ridsdale and across Northumberland.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Should you replace it?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is usually best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
If you are in Ridsdale and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- 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.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, usually until the following day.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Get a moving tray checked
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
FAQs for Ridsdale
How long before I can shower?
You’ll get the exact time when we finish.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price, usually with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Only if you are sure it is not leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
When to call us in Ridsdale
Rigid trays do not bend, they crack if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Scratches in the surface
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
Before booking anyone
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What happens if they find more damage
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
What a repair can’t fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Trays cracked in several places
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
