What affects the price in Burgh on Bain

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Burgh on Bain. The price depends on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Burgh on Bain use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

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

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

How to look after the repair

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant 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 isn’t visible.

What a repair can’t fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Trays cracked in several places

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Burgh on Bain questions

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Are there extra charges for Burgh on Bain?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What happens on the day

We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
