Landlords, agents and businesses in Barrow upon Soar
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Store bottles off the tray
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Check the seal every few months
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
- Any sealant in the way is cut out.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- The surface is refinished to match.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
How to get a price

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
Barrow upon Soar questions
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Only if you are sure it is not leaking. Look for damp or stains below.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Do you cover Barrow upon Soar?
We do. We send a technician to Barrow upon Soar for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Is repairing better 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.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
