Kielder: your questions answered
How long before I can shower?
Normally by the following day. We’ll confirm before we leave.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you come to Kielder?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Kielder and the rest of Northumberland. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price

Repairing versus replacing in Kielder
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
What you get with us
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- No extra charge for your area
- A fixed quote before booking

Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Kielder, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.
Different materials, different repairs
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Leaking waste fittings
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder

Common problems we fix in Kielder
Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Chips typically come from dropped bottles.
Common reasons people in Kielder contact us include:
- Chips on the edges
- A tray that flexes
- Chips caused during fitting
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
