For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Lincolnshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gayton le Marsh use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Common problems we fix in Gayton le Marsh

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

Common reasons people in Gayton le Marsh contact us include:

  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Movement when you stand on it

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

How to compare quotes

What affects the price in Gayton le Marsh

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Compared with replacing, repairing usually 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

Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it
  • A photo taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • A tray broken in more than one place

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

Don’t keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the day after.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know about parking or access

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Repairing versus replacing in Gayton le Marsh

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Gayton le Marsh. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why Gayton le Marsh clients choose us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
