Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you work in Swinstead?

What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Do you need shower tray repair in Swinstead?
A tired-looking tray is often the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale strip the surface finish.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Chips on the edges
- A crack across the base
- Movement when you stand on it
- A dull, stained or worn surface
What your quote should include
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What prep work is covered
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether they match the colour on site
How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Replace failing sealant promptly
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.
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What else we do in Swinstead
How we price shower tray repair
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Swinstead. What changes the price is:
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
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 a repair can’t fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- A tray broken in more than one place
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

- Enamelled steel
