Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your NR29 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface for most jobs. The room is left tidy.

  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. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Open a window if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

What we’re called out for in Winterton-on-Sea

Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, typically on the edges or near the plughole.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • A crack across the base
  • Scratches in the surface
  • A tray that flexes

10 questions to ask before booking

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Use the extractor fan
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Rinse away soap after showering
  • Get a moving tray checked

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Questions from Winterton-on-Sea

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.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Winterton-on-Sea and the rest of Norfolk. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish without removing it.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.

Repair or replace in Winterton-on-Sea?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. 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. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Honest limits

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
