Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Tranch. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
If you are in Tranch and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- A tray broken in more than one place
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
Tranch: your questions answered
Can you replace the silicone at the same time?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Do you cover Tranch?
We do. We send a technician to Tranch for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Repair or replace in Tranch?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tranch as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
