Honest limits

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • A tray that moves underfoot
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray broken in more than one place

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Islip

  • Enamelled steel
  • Stone resin
  • Ceramic
  • Cast iron
  • Acrylic

Different materials, different repairs

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Check the seal every few months
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray

Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

Choosing a repair company

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
