Common questions in Hillington
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Do you redo the sealant?
Yes, if you’d like us to. After a repair is a good time to reseal.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Only if you’re sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What we can’t put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A tray broken in more than one place
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic
- Stone resin

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hillington
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Repairs by material
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Replace failing sealant promptly
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
