Cockburnspath: your questions answered
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Do you come to Cockburnspath?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Cockburnspath and the rest of the Scottish Borders. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Use the extractor fan
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Do not use strong acids or bleach
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is typically best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Cockburnspath. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
