About our shower tray repair in Victoria Garesfield
Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the repair lasts. Common call-outs are for edge chips from dropped bottles and chips or cracks by the plughole, across enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Landlord and trade work in Victoria Garesfield
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, typically until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear the area around the damage

Related advice
Why repair rather than replace?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: 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. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Why book with us
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- One visit for most repairs
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- We leave the room as we found it

What your shower tray is made of matters
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Victoria Garesfield
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Frequently. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.
Do you cover the entire of Gateshead?
The entire UK, including all of Gateshead. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How long before I can shower?
You’ll get the exact time when we finish.
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Victoria Garesfield, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Honest limits
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- A tray that moves underfoot

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
