The process

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

10 questions to ask before you book

Why repair rather than replace?

A new shower tray often means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched and costs far less. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Barrs Court

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Read our full price list.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

For a price in Barrs Court, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

How to look after the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water cannot get underneath.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Different materials, different repairs

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Barrs Court

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Bristol and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Common questions in Barrs Court

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes, it’s a common job. A full resurface makes a tired tray look fresh.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Barrs Court included. There is no extra charge for travel.
