For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Make sure the area is dry
Getting a price
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.
Advice
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Ventilate the room after showers
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
Common questions in Darland
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
How long before I can shower?
You will get the exact time when we finish.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Darland, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
When we would advise against a repair
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Stone resin
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Repairs by material
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Should you replace it?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
