Trusted shower tray repair in Clayhanger

Shower tray repair in Clayhanger without replacing anything

We check the tray before repairing it: a tray that moves needs its support sorted first, or the crack will come back. We will explain what we find. Our repair technicians work on acrylic, cast iron and ceramic, and people most frequently call us about movement when you stand on it and scuffs and light scratches.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. The repair is colour-matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. Once cured, generally by the next day, you can use the shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Repair or replace in Clayhanger?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: 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 Clayhanger

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Most jobs done in one visit

What a repair can’t fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Rotten or damaged flooring underneath
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Trays cracked in several places

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Use the extractor fan

Keep an eye on the sealant, and reseal when it starts to fail.

Act on split sealant early. Water gets behind and under the tray and can cause damage underneath.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Clayhanger

Stone resin trays are rigid, so they crack rather than bend if the floor beneath them isn’t flat and fully supported. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • A cracked shower tray
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Damage around the waste

Before you book anyone

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Aftercare advice
  • Who will actually do the work
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

Our hiring checklist

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, a professional repair is worth it.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
