Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Alnwick questions
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
When can I use the shower again?
You’ll get the exact time when we finish.
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Landlord and trade work in Alnwick
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface in most cases. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the following day.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Store bottles off the tray
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
What affects the price in Alnwick
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
