Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Questions from Ardley End
How long before I can shower?
You’ll get the exact time when we finish, typically the day after.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Often. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the day after.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Report any creaking or movement early
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
