What affects the price in North Fareham

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to North Fareham. The price comes down to:

  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send photos for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. The room is left tidy.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the whole tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

North Fareham: your questions answered

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do you work in North Fareham?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to North Fareham. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we’ll do both on one visit.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Frequently. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

What we’re called out for in North Fareham

Cracks frequently start at the waste, where the tray is cut and the fitting is tightened.

Look out for these signs:

  • A tray that flexes
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Chips on the edges

Questions to ask before booking

  • Who will actually do the work
  • Aftercare advice
  • What preparation is included
  • How long it needs to cure

Our hiring checklist

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

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

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

How to care for the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

Landlord and trade work in North Fareham

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
