How we handle shower tray repair in Broomhill

A cracked or chipped shower tray doesn’t always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can typically be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. We regularly repair acrylic, cast iron and stone resin, and common reasons people contact us are a tray that creaks or moves underfoot and a crack across the base.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Broomhill and across South Gloucestershire.

How it works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray.

  1. We make sure the tray does not flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. Next we clean and prepare the tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the whole tray.
  5. Once cured, generally by the following day, you can use the shower.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, 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, then guarantee it for a year.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tray typically means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Broomhill

  • We leave the room as we found it

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
  • Details of any past repairs

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the shower tray, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Do you need shower tray repair in Broomhill?

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, particularly if it wasn’t fully bedded. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

Clients normally contact us about:

  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Damage around the waste
  • A crack across the base
  • Movement when you stand on it

Comparing quotes

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Broomhill questions

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

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

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

What happens after I send pictures?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Broomhill.

What information do you need?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Landlord and trade work in Broomhill

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

What your shower tray is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. We repair cracks and scratches.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Trays cracked in several places
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

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

Materials we repair
