Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Give the tray a quick rinse after use
- Check the seal every few months
- Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
- Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
Rinse the tray down after showering, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, which can damage the floor over time. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a tray usually means taking out the enclosure and tiles, preparing a new base and re-tiling. A repair or resurface leaves all of that alone. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Padworth Common. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
- Trays cracked in several places
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.
