Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Suffolk and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Crowfield as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

How to care for the repair

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Get a moving tray checked

Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.

What we are called out for in Crowfield

Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Chips normally come from dropped bottles.

Common reasons people in Crowfield contact us are:

  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • A cracked shower tray
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Damage from a refit or building work

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether they match the colour on site

  • How the room is protected while they work

10 questions to ask before you book

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Crowfield questions

Do you work in Crowfield?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Crowfield and the rest of Suffolk. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

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. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Do you cover the entire of Suffolk?

We cover the entire UK, including Crowfield and the rest of Suffolk. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

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. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

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

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
