DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How much damage there is
  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

For a price in Brigg, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. Once cured, typically by the next day, you can use the shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes

Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Questions from Brigg

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Repair or replace in Brigg?

A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. Repairing it avoids all of that, at a fraction of the cost. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. 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 play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • No extra charge for your area
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Common problems we fix in Brigg

Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Chips caused during fitting
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Cracks running from the waste

Questions to ask before you book

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What prep work is covered
  • When it can be used again
