Repairing versus replacing in Barroway Drove
Replacing a tray typically means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that, at a fraction of the cost. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Questions from Barroway Drove
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Barroway Drove. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Barroway Drove.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

When to call us in Barroway Drove
The waste is a common starting point for cracks, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.
The things customers usually mention when they call are:
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- A tray that flexes
- Chips on the edges
- Scuffs and light scratches
What to look for in a quote
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Aftercare advice
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Plumbing leaks under the tray

- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
If you manage property in Barroway Drove, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
