What else we do in Howdon
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Leaking waste fittings
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Howdon
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Check the seal every few months
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Rinse the tray after each shower
Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
How it works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.
- We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the following day.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
