Whatstandwell questions
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Are there extra charges for Whatstandwell?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Repair or replace in Whatstandwell?
Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so taking one out disturbs a lot. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Work done at your home or business
- No need to remove anything
Read our prices page.
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
What affects the price in Whatstandwell
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A photo taken from further back
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Whatstandwell, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
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.
The process
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually 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.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can normally be used the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price
If you are in Whatstandwell and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
