How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- 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.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear the area around the damage

Other services in West Herrington
What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match

- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Landlords, agents and businesses in West Herrington
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in West Herrington use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Sunderland and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, 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.
When we’d advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
