How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
- Next we clean and prepare the tray.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, you can use the shower.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice
When to call us in Hertford
Most cracked trays are trays that flex: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
- A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
- Chips caused during fitting
What to look for in a quote
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What aftercare is recommended
- How long it needs to cure
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tray generally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Hertford. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
FAQs for Hertford
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed quote. There’s no obligation to book.
Do you come to Hertford?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Hertford. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you quote from photos?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
Honest limits
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Trays cracked in several places
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
