Book shower tray repair in Brompton Ralph

How the visit works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, including clearing up.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

Upload pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Brompton Ralph, and we will reply with a fixed price.

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

What we can’t put right

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Don’t use strong acids or bleach
  • Rinse the tray after each shower

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

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

Brompton Ralph questions

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

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

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

How long before I can shower?

You’ll get the exact time when we finish.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Is a cracked tray repairable?

Generally, if the tray is firmly supported. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

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

Do you need shower tray repair in Brompton Ralph?

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

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Damage around the waste
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Chipped corners or rims
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
