DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.
Quotes from your pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Most customers in Garth Place get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Should you replace it?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Garth Place. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Repairs by material
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 rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Garth Place: your questions answered
Do you cover Garth Place?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Garth Place. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you reseal the tray as well?
We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

When can I use the shower again?
You’ll get the exact time when we finish.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
