Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Ventilate the room after showers
- Don’t use strong acids or bleach
- Get a moving tray checked
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, to avoid chips.
A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
- A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

Related advice
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.
