Harpford questions
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
When can I use the shower again?
Typically the next day. We will confirm before we leave.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

How it works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
- Once cured, typically by the day after, you can use the shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Harpford
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Honest limits
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Trays cracked in several places
- Leaking waste fittings
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Check the seal every few months
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
