Work for landlords and builders

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We ensure the tray doesn’t flex and look for 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

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Ensure the area is dry

Ask for a price

Upload pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Pontesbury, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Advice

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Send photos for a quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Common questions in Pontesbury

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Do you come to Pontesbury?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Pontesbury. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can landlords book you?

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

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

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

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
