Landlords, agents and businesses in Sutton St James
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Repair or replace: which is better?
If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- Once cured, typically by the following day, you can use the shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Make sure the area is dry
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Common questions in Sutton St James
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Sutton St James. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Store bottles off the tray
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.
