Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Forncett End. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What a repair cannot fix
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Trays cracked in several places
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Forncett End
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Questions from Forncett End
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Usually, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
When can I use the shower again?
Typically the next day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed price. You are under no obligation.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What we are called out for in Forncett End
Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
The things customers normally mention when they call include:
- A crack across the base
- Scratches in the surface
- Movement when you stand on it
- Chips caused during fitting
Questions to ask before you book
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether the price covers travel
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What aftercare is recommended
What we do, step by step
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Open a window if you can

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
