Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

Enamelled steel

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

Landlord and trade work in Carlton Forest

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Carlton Forest as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

When we’d advise against a repair

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray broken in more than one place

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Enamelled steel
  • Acrylic

We would stop using it until it’s repaired, in case water is getting through.

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Choosing a repair company

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

How it works

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
