Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
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.

When we would advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
- Leaking waste fittings
- Trays cracked in several places
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic
- Ceramic
- Cast iron
- Enamelled steel
- Stone resin
How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We leave the room clean.
- We check the tray for movement first.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, normally until the day after.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Ensure the area is dry
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Rodbaston: your questions answered
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, so Rodbaston is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can I keep using a cracked tray?
Not until you know the crack isn’t letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Common problems we fix in Rodbaston
On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- Edge chips from dropped bottles
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- A dull, stained or worn surface
- A tray that flexes
What your quote should include
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How the colour is matched
- How to look after the finish
- Who will actually do the work
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Avoid strong descalers and bleach
- Rinse the tray after each shower
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.
If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.
