What affects the price in Walker
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Walker. The price comes down to:
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
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.
The process
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, including clearing up.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your NE6 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Walker questions
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What areas do you cover?
All of Newcastle upon Tyne, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Generally, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.

Do you need shower tray repair in Walker?
A tired-looking tray is often the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale wear the finish away.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- A damaged area around the waste
- Chipped corners or rims
- A crack across the base
- Chips caused during fitting
Comparing quotes
- How to look after the finish
- Who will actually do the work
- When it can be used again
- What prep work is covered
What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
