How the visit works
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- It’s left to cure, generally until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have a window or extractor fan available

When we would advise against a repair
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- A tray that moves underfoot
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Stone resin
- Acrylic
- Cast iron
- Ceramic
- Enamelled steel
How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff:
- Use the extractor fan
- Stick to gentle cleaners
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Store bottles off the tray
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Landlords, agents and businesses in New Herrington
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
Repairs by material
Enamelled steel
Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
