About our shower tray repair in Sunniside
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack does not come back. We work on acrylic, cast iron and enamelled steel, and the jobs we see most are scratches in the surface and staining and dullness across the tray.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
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.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
If you’re in Sunniside 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.
Your questions about shower tray repair in Sunniside
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
How long before I can shower?
We’ll give you the curing time on the day, typically the day after.

How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.
- 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.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Repair or replace in Sunniside?
The tray is typically the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is.

- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

- Nothing taken out or refitted
Read our full price list.
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Get a moving tray checked
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Sunniside as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
