Landlord and trade work in Holborn Hill
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Holborn Hill as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below is not visible.
How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
What affects the price in Holborn Hill
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Holborn Hill. What changes the price is:
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
When a repair is not the answer
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
