FAQs for Long Row
Do you reseal the tray as well?
Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Long Row. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Landlord and trade work in Long Row
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Long Row use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, generally until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
If you’re in Long Row and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Use the extractor fan
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
Common problems we fix in Long Row
The waste is a common starting point for cracks, because that’s where the tray is weakest and the fitting puts pressure on it.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Movement when you stand on it
- Scratches in the surface
- Damage from a refit or building work
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

Repairing versus replacing in Long Row
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Long Row. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
