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

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner

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

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.

When we’d advise against a repair

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

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • A tray that moves underfoot

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

What we work on

  • Ceramic
  • Acrylic
  • Cast iron
  • Stone resin
  • Enamelled steel

When to call us in Authorpe

Choosing a repair company

How the visit works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How to get a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Authorpe questions

Do you reseal the tray as well?

We can. After a repair is a good time to reseal.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Only if you’re sure it is not leaking. Look for damp or stains below.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Lincolnshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
