Common questions in Broadnook

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes. We can repair and reseal on the same visit.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Will there be a smell?

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

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

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

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your LE7 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Related advice

Different materials, different repairs

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

When to call us in Broadnook

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks normally point to an uneven base.

Look out for these signs:

  • A crack across the base
  • A damaged area around the waste
  • Scuffs and light scratches
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

Before you book anyone

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What preparation is included

Choosing a repair company

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

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

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks.

Why repair rather than replace?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is generally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What shower tray repair costs

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

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any details about the material

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
