Trusted shower tray repair in Boothville

Shower tray repair in Boothville without replacing anything

You do not always need a new tray. If it’s firmly supported, we can repair it where it is, which is far less work than a replacement. We regularly repair acrylic, stone resin and enamelled steel, and common reasons people contact us are a tray that looks tired however much you clean it and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

How we price shower tray repair

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

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • Something in shot to show the size

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Boothville

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

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.

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 we match repairs to the surface finish.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

FAQs for Boothville

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Generally, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Is there any odour?

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

Can you make an old tray look new?

Yes. We can resurface the whole tray for a fresh finish.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What happens after I send pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Do you cover Boothville?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Boothville. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is typically usable the following day.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

Signs you need shower tray repair in Boothville

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • A crack across the base
  • A tray that flexes

Choosing a repair company

How to look after the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Report any creaking or movement early

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water may be getting under the tray, and the damage below isn’t visible.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
