For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Kirtling Green, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

What else we do in Kirtling Green
When we would advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Trays cracked in several places
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Stone resin
- Enamelled steel
Should you replace it?
Replacing a tray generally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that, at a fraction of the cost. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How the visit works
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Related advice
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Kirtling Green. What changes the price is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
