Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray normally involves taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • No need to remove anything
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

How to care for the repair

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
