Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

Questions from Oaklands
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can a stained tray be refinished?
Yes. We can resurface the entire tray for a fresh finish.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, because water may be getting underneath.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
What we are called out for in Oaklands
A tired-looking tray is frequently the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale strip the surface finish.
Clients normally contact us about:
- Scratches from cleaning or grit
- Cracks running from the waste
- Damage from a refit or building work
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
Questions to ask before booking

- How the colour is matched
- How long it needs to cure
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Do not ignore a tray that flexes
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Ventilate the room after showers
Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
The process
We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface.
- We check the tray is firmly supported and find 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.
- The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
- The tray is left to cure and can generally be used the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
