When to call us in Piddinghoe

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Scuffs and light scratches

10 questions to ask before booking

When a repair is not the answer

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath

What we work on

  • Ceramic
  • Stone resin
  • Acrylic
  • Enamelled steel
  • Cast iron

Can I fix it myself?

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, then guarantee it for a year.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Ensure the area is dry

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Piddinghoe use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Repairs by material

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.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tray normally means removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Piddinghoe. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
