What we can’t put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • A tray that moves underfoot

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Stone resin
  • Acrylic
  • Enamelled steel
  • Ceramic
  • Cast iron

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Shiremoor

Dull and stained trays are normally down to cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads wear the finish away.

  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Chips on the edges
  • Damage around the waste

What to look for in a quote

  • How the colour is matched
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

10 questions to ask before booking

Repair or replace in Shiremoor?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • A fixed quote before booking

See our full price list.

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Shiremoor. The price reflects:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. 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.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the entire shower tray

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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 typically the cheaper route.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

How it works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, including clearing up.

  1. We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Shiremoor: your questions answered

Can you fix a cracked tray?

In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Do you cover Shiremoor?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Shiremoor and the rest of North Tyneside. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced without removing it.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
