DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Why repair rather than replace?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. Repairing it avoids that disruption. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  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

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Questions from Telegraph

Do you cover Telegraph?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Telegraph and the rest of the Isles of Scilly. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

We would stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Are there extra charges for Telegraph?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you cover the entire of the Isles of Scilly?

We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.

What affects the price in Telegraph

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Telegraph. What changes the price is:

  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

For a price in Telegraph, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Stone resin
  • Cast iron
  • Acrylic
  • Ceramic
  • Enamelled steel

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Report any creaking or movement early
  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
