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

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, mild cleaners and good ventilation are all it needs.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.

Repairs by material

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

How we price shower tray repair

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

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the whole shower tray

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Your questions about shower tray repair in Burntheath

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Burntheath?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

When can I use the shower again?

We’ll give you the curing time on the day.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. The entire tray can be resurfaced.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Typically, as long as it doesn’t flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

How do I book?

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

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

When a repair is not the answer

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
