Common questions in Old Romney

Do you work in Old Romney?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Old Romney. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, 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 fix a cracked tray?

Typically, as long as it doesn’t flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Kent.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

What information do you need?

What affects the price in Old Romney

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Old Romney

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

For anyone letting property in or around Old Romney, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • A crack across the base

How to compare quotes

The process

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your TN29 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Check the seal every few months

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you can’t see.

What we can’t put right

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
