Common questions in Nettlecombe
Are there extra charges for Nettlecombe?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you resurface a whole tray?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
How long before I can shower?
Generally the day after. We’ll confirm before we leave.

What affects the price in Nettlecombe
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Nettlecombe. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
We price from pictures so you do not 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.
When to call us in Nettlecombe
Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, typically along the edges or by the waste.

- Cracks running from the waste
- Scratches in the surface
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Chipped corners or rims
Before booking anyone

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Nettlecombe as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Repair or replace in Nettlecombe?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good.

When a repair isn’t the answer
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Trays cracked in several places
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Store bottles off the tray
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
