Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow 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.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Make sure the area is dry
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- How much damage there is
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- One picture of the entire shower tray
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
What your shower tray is made of matters
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.
