Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- Multiple cracks across the tray
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we work on in Buckfastleigh
- Stone resin

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Store bottles off the tray
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Check the seal every few months
Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water may be getting under the tray, where it causes damage you can’t see.
