Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
About our shower tray repair in Romaldkirk
If the whole tray looks tired, we can resurface it, for a clean, uniform finish. We work on enamelled steel, stone resin and acrylic, and common reasons people contact us are a crack across the base and chips on the edges.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Romaldkirk questions
How long before I can shower?
Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of County Durham. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Can you fix a cracked tray?
In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.
Do you come to Romaldkirk?
We do. We send a technician to Romaldkirk for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
- Acrylic
- Stone resin

How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.
Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material
- How many areas need work
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
What happens on the day
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, generally by the following day, you can use the shower.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
