Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Farthingloe use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

What we’re called out for in Farthingloe
Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Chips typically come from dropped bottles.
Common reasons people in Farthingloe contact us are:
- A crack across the base
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
What your quote should include
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What aftercare is recommended
What a repair cannot fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Stick to gentle cleaners
Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Getting a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
Advice
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
