Shower tray repair in Stamfordham, done in place

Shower tray repairs are one of our most common jobs. Chipped edges, cracks and worn finishes are all things we fix in place. We’re frequently asked to fix staining and dullness across the tray and a cracked shower tray, on acrylic, cast iron and enamelled steel.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Stamfordham

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

The things customers typically mention when they call are:

  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • A cracked shower tray

Our hiring checklist

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

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

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray typically means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

FAQs for Stamfordham

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Northumberland.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do you work in Stamfordham?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Stamfordham and the rest of Northumberland. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do you cover the whole of Northumberland?

Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How to get a price

Related advice

What affects the price in Stamfordham

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage
  • The material

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.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.
