All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What affects the price in Horfield
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- The type of damage
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Horfield. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A picture taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Why book with us
- Work done at your home or business

Landlord and trade work in Horfield
If you manage property in Horfield, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the area is dry
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
