What affects the price in Tullos

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Tullos. The price reflects:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Report any creaking or movement early

Keep heavy bottles off the tray floor, to avoid chips.

Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below is not visible.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Tullos

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tullos as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Tullos

Rigid trays do not bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Cracks running from the waste

Before you book anyone

  • Aftercare advice
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • When it can be used again
  • What prep work is covered

Choosing a repair company

Common questions in Tullos

Are there extra charges for Tullos?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Repairing versus replacing in Tullos

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

When a repair is not the answer

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
