Northern Quarter questions
Can you make an old tray look new?
Yes. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you cover Northern Quarter?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Northern Quarter for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed price. There’s no obligation to book.
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Replace failing sealant promptly
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Use the extractor fan
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.
Do not keep using a cracked tray. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- We protect the floor and the enclosure.
- Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
- The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
- We refinish the surface to match the tray.
- We clean up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
