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

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

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.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Honest limits

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • A tray that moves underfoot

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Ceramic
  • Enamelled steel
  • Stone resin
  • Acrylic
  • Cast iron

What we are called out for in Boarhunt

A tired-looking tray is frequently the result of years of cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads wear the finish away.

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • A tray that flexes
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

Questions to ask before you book

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

How to compare quotes

Common questions in Boarhunt

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

How long before I can shower?

You will get the exact time when we finish.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

What affects the price in Boarhunt

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Boarhunt. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is
  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Use the extractor fan

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Act on split sealant early. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Repairing versus replacing in Boarhunt

Replacing a tray usually means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that and costs far less. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
