Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Stone resin
Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. They crack if the base is not fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.
How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Keep the bathroom well ventilated
- Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
Keep scourers and harsh chemicals off the tray. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.
Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

How it works
A typical visit goes like this: 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 from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
- Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
- The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
- It’s left to cure, generally until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Open a window if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
