What affects the price in Fratton
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- A picture taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Should you replace it?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

FAQs for Fratton
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Do you work in Fratton?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Fratton and the rest of Portsmouth. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
Generally, as long as it does not flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the next day.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Landlord and trade work in Fratton
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Fratton use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Check the seal every few months
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Get a moving tray checked
- Ventilate the room after showers
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
When we’d advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Trays cracked in several places
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
