Clients generally contact us about:

  • Movement when you stand on it
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Scratches in the surface
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

10 questions to ask before booking

Binbrook questions

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Which areas do you work in?

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Binbrook. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Landlord and trade work in Binbrook

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

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 doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Should you replace it?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to care for the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Use the extractor fan

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.
