How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
- The tray is left to cure and can typically be used the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
- Store bottles off the tray
- Use the extractor fan
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send photos for a quote
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
