Should you replace it?
When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Can I fix it myself?
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.
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.
What affects the price in Lower Thorpe
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
- A photo taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your OX17 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lower Thorpe use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

When we’d advise against a repair
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- A tray that moves underfoot
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled steel
- Ceramic
- Acrylic
- Stone resin
- Cast iron
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Store bottles off the tray
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
Wait the full curing time before you shower. 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. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

How the visit works
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
- The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, you can use the shower.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
