Usk questions

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the entire UK, including Usk and the rest of Monmouthshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Usk and the rest of Monmouthshire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Repairing versus replacing in Usk

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Why us?

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

How it works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  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 tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

What we’re called out for in Usk

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Common reasons people in Usk contact us are:

  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Movement when you stand on it

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Who turns up on the day
  • If travel is included in the price
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Choosing a repair company

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Rinse away soap after showering

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.
