Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Unusual colours or finishes

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we work on in Rochester Riverside

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

Repair or replace in Rochester Riverside?

Replacing a tray generally means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. A repair leaves all of that untouched and costs far less. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Take a look at our prices page.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

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.

What we are called out for in Rochester Riverside

Trays crack mainly because they move: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Chips usually come from dropped bottles.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles

Questions from Rochester Riverside

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

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Does someone need to be in?

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

How do I book?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do you cover the whole of Medway?

Everywhere in the UK, Rochester Riverside included. Travel is included in the price.

Do you cover Rochester Riverside?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Rochester Riverside from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

The process

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the entire tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, you can use the shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
