Landlords, agents and businesses in Brown Lees
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Brown Lees as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Staffordshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your ST8 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

What happens on the day
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, generally by the next day, you can use the shower.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Advice
FAQs for Brown Lees
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Brown Lees. Our prices are the same everywhere.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.
