How we handle shower tray repair in Baughton

You do not always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, saving you the cost and mess of a new one. We regularly repair cast iron, enamelled steel and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are a tray that flexes and cracks running from the waste.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Baughton and across Worcestershire.

Before and after: an old shower tray refinished by Surface Doctor

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. A flat, solid base is essential, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

How to look after the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they can’t be knocked over.

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.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material
  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is usually usable the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

FAQs for Baughton

Do you work in Baughton?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Baughton and the rest of Worcestershire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced without removing it.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
