Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

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

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The material, if you know it

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. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Related advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

FAQs for Britannia

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes, it’s a common job. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

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

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Britannia?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your OL13 postcode.

Do you cover the entire of Lancashire?

We cover the entire UK, including Britannia and the rest of Lancashire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Ventilate the room after showers

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

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

What we can’t put right

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray that moves underfoot
