Shower tray repair in Westgate, done in place
We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll explain what we find. We work on enamelled steel, acrylic and stone resin, and the jobs we see most are a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and movement when you stand on it.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.

How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
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, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
Common questions in Westgate
Do you reseal the tray as well?
We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you cover the entire of Newcastle upon Tyne?
The entire UK, including all of Newcastle upon Tyne. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Only if you’re sure it isn’t leaking. Look for damp or stains below.

What affects the price in Westgate
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the whole shower tray
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Westgate, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Westgate use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
What a repair can’t fix
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Trays cracked in several places
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the following day.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
