Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Most clients in Burleston get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
- Once cured, typically by the next day, you can use the shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your DT2 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Repair or replace in Burleston?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
What you get with us
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Normally one visit, start to finish
- Honest advice, even when it means no job

How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Check the seal every few months
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Ventilate the room after showers
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
