Common questions in Almodington
Do you cover the entire of West Sussex?
We cover the whole UK, including Almodington and the rest of West Sussex. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish without removing it.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is a cracked tray repairable?
Typically, as long as it doesn’t flex. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
How long before I can shower?
Normally by the following day. We will confirm before we leave.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Should you replace it?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
The process
We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Common problems we fix in Almodington
Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Chips caused during fitting
- Scuffs and light scratches
Comparing quotes
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Use the extractor fan
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
