Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Use the extractor fan
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
Common questions in Duke Street
Is it OK to use a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Look for damp or stains below.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, and that includes Duke Street. Prices don’t change with location.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
Honest limits
We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- A tray broken in more than one place
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair

- Stone resin

What we do, step by step
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

When to call us in Duke Street

- A damaged area around the waste
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Scratches in the surface
- Chips on the edges
Questions to ask before you book

What else we do in Duke Street
Repairing versus replacing in Duke Street
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
