Repair or replace in Shadforth?
A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

About our shower tray repair in Shadforth
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, or resurface the entire tray if it’s worn. The tray stays in place, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. We are often asked to fix a crack across the base and damage around the waste, in ceramic, enamelled steel and acrylic.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Landlord and trade work in Shadforth
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Shadforth as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Honest limits
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Questions from Shadforth
How long before I can shower?
Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.
Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?
Generally, as long as it does not flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Only if you’re sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Can you quote from photos?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Do you cover the entire of County Durham?
We cover the whole UK, including Shadforth and the rest of County Durham. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- 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.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
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 photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
What we’re called out for in Shadforth
Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Timber floors that move can cause it too.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Cracks running from the waste
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- A tray that flexes
Before booking anyone
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether the price covers travel
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Check the seal every few months
- Get a moving tray checked
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
