  • Access to the area

Questions from Little Preston

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Little Preston included. Travel is included in the price.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can you price it without visiting?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Generally, as long as it does not flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

How it works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  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. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Related advice

What we are called out for in Little Preston

Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips usually come from dropped bottles.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • A dull, stained or worn surface

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What aftercare is recommended

10 questions to ask before you book

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, 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 are filled and matched to the surface.
