What affects the price in Moor End
We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath or shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Instead, you could go for replacing the bath or tray with a textured one, or relying on a mat that needs lifting and cleaning. A non-slip coating treats your existing bath or tray. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
