How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

Questions from Dosthill

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Is there a guarantee?

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

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Store bottles off the tray

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Repairing versus replacing in Dosthill

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Same prices wherever you are

What we are called out for in Dosthill

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips typically come from dropped bottles.

The things customers normally mention when they call are:

  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

Before you book anyone

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How to care for the finish
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Choosing a repair company

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Staffordshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

When we would advise against a repair

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

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
