About our shower tray repair in Braithwaite
Stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays can all be repaired, and worn trays can be resurfaced completely. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. Our technicians work on acrylic, ceramic and cast iron, and the jobs we see most are chips caused during fitting and chips on the edges.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Braithwaite as everywhere else we work.

For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Braithwaite questions
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
What does shower tray repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
How long does it take to cure?
Normally by the following day. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Different materials, different repairs
Ceramic
Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and the repair is polished to match the shine.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.
When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Multiple cracks across the tray
- Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair

Repair or replace in Braithwaite?
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. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Braithwaite

- A fixed quote before booking

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.
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, and the work is guaranteed.

- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit

- A dull, stained or worn surface
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- A cracked shower tray
- A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
