DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Repair or replace in Scratby?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is usually best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Scratby. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • One price list for the entire UK

How to compare quotes

How to care for the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Get a moving tray checked

Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

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

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Common questions in Scratby

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

What happens after I send photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

Do you come to Scratby?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Scratby and the rest of Norfolk. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit
