How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
About our shower tray repair in Tynemouth
We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll explain what we find. Whether it’s a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and a cracked shower tray, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Tynemouth questions
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across North Tyneside.
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.
How much does shower tray repair cost in Tynemouth?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Honest limits
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Plumbing leaks under the tray

How to care for the repair
It’s all simple stuff:
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they cannot be knocked over.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Repair or replace: which is better?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair is one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- Once cured, generally by the day after, you can use the shower.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Make sure the area is dry
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Tynemouth, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Advice
For landlords and businesses
