Can I fix it myself?
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 normally cheaper.
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.
Honest limits
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Ceramic
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
- Cast iron
- Acrylic
Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Common questions in Ushaw Moor
Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?
Only if you’re sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you cover Ushaw Moor?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Ushaw Moor from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you cover the whole of County Durham?
All of County Durham, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Common problems we fix in Ushaw Moor
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks generally point to an uneven base.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Damage around the waste
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Cracks running from the waste
What to look for in a quote
- When it can be used again
- If travel is included in the price
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
- The material
- How much damage there is
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
Send us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your DH7 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Repair or replace in Ushaw Moor?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
