Honest limits

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)

  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Scratches in the surface
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • Chips or cracks by the plughole

Prices and what affects them

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

  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A photo taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Skelwith Bridge, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Why repair rather than replace?

The tray is typically the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Generally one visit, start to finish

The process

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to get a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Enamelled steel

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
