Common questions in West Challow
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
How much does shower tray repair cost in West Challow?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes West Challow. Prices don’t change with location.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
When to call us in West Challow
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On solid floors, cracks typically point to an uneven base.
Look out for these signs:
- Chips caused during fitting
- Scuffs and light scratches
- Chipped corners or rims
- A crack across the base
What to look for in a quote
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How the colour is matched
- What happens if they find more damage
What affects the price in West Challow
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Most clients in West Challow get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
What we do, step by step
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Why repair rather than replace?
The tray is typically the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Why us?
- Same prices wherever you are
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- No need to remove anything
