Common questions in Dunham Town
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will I see the coating?
Only slightly: it shows as a matt area where you stand.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Trafford. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Prices and what affects them
You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- One picture of the entire bath or shower tray
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
When we would advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Surfaces that are already damaged or peeling (these need repairing first)
- Textured areas still wet or recently cleaned with oily products
- Outdoor surfaces
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Resurfaced baths
- Acrylic baths
- Enamelled baths
- Wet room floors (ask us)
- Shower trays

DIY kit or professional repair?
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 typically the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
