Jobs in DN36 work the same way as everywhere else we cover. We regularly work on streets such as Station Road, Countess Close and Holme Avenue and the roads around them.

Local landmarks in New Waltham

Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

How we price shower tray repair
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
When to call us in New Waltham
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.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Chipped corners or rims
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- Damage from a refit or building work
- Scratches in the surface
Before you book anyone
- How the colour is matched
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What preparation is included
- When it can be used again
Repair or replace in New Waltham?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is typically best. 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. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is 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 photos.
How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Open a window if you can
Ask for a price
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your DN36 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
