What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Cast iron
  • Enamelled steel
  • Stone resin
  • Acrylic
  • Ceramic

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Purton Stoke use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

How to look after the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.

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

FAQs for Purton Stoke

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

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.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Do you work in Purton Stoke?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Purton Stoke from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Common problems we fix in Purton Stoke

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Timber floors that move can cause it too.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • A crack across the base
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit

Choosing a repair company

What we do, step by step

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Related advice

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area
  • The material

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.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

We price from pictures so you don’t 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’ll get a fixed figure back.
