For landlords and businesses

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What we’re called out for in Knowle West

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

The things clients generally mention when they call include:

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • Chips caused during fitting

Before you book anyone

  • Aftercare advice
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How long it needs to cure

10 questions to ask before you book

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, so they can’t be knocked over.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Why repair rather than replace?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Knowle West. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why Knowle West clients choose us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • No need to remove anything
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
