Shower tray repair in Tyne Dock without replacing anything

Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the crack doesn’t come back. Common call-outs are for a tray that flexes and scuffs and light scratches, across enamelled steel, acrylic and cast iron.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What affects the price in Tyne Dock

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Tyne Dock. What changes the price is:

  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Send pictures for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the entire shower tray
  • The material, if you know it

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your NE33 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

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.

How it works

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

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

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

Tyne Dock: your questions answered

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

How long before I can shower?

We will give you the curing time on the day, usually the following day.

Are you accredited?

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

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Frequently. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tray generally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and re-tiling. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Usually one visit, start to finish

Read our prices page.

What we cannot put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.
