Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lower Rainham use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Store bottles off the tray
- Check the seal every few months
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, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
When to call us in Lower Rainham
Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, normally along the edges or by the waste.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
- Cracks running from the waste
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot

How the visit works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, normally until the next day.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
