Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Should you replace it?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

FAQs for Coombe

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Do you work in Coombe?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Coombe. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Usually, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. Once cured, generally by the day after, you can use the shower.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Honest limits

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Leaking waste fittings

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

  • Acrylic
  • Cast iron
  • Enamelled steel
  • Stone resin
  • Ceramic

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
