About our shower tray repair in The Lee
Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. We are often asked to fix damage from a refit or building work and a crack across the base, across ceramic, enamelled steel and cast iron.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Northumberland.

- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- 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.

Related advice
Landlords, agents and businesses in The Lee
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Repair or replace: which is better?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Why choose Surface Doctor in The Lee

Different materials, different repairs
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A picture taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
When we would advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

How much does shower tray repair cost in The Lee?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

How quickly can you book me in?

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Check the seal every few months
- Use the extractor fan
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.
