Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Ayleford. The price reflects:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

FAQs for Ayleford

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Normally, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, so Ayleford is covered. Prices don’t change with location.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do you come to Ayleford?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Ayleford from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Store bottles off the tray

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The tray is typically the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Ayleford. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
