Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of
  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs

There is 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 will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Common problems we fix in Whitestreet Green

Dull and stained trays are usually down to cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads strip the surface finish.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles

Before booking anyone

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

How it works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, generally until the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

What we can’t put right

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Whitestreet Green questions

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

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

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Whitestreet Green. Our prices are the same everywhere.

How long does it take to cure?

Usually the following day. We’ll confirm before we leave.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Do you redo the sealant?

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

Repairing versus replacing in Whitestreet Green

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. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Same prices wherever you are

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Stick to gentle cleaners
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

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

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.
