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

What we do, step by step

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and we leave the room as we found 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. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new shower tray frequently means a new enclosure fitting, new tiling and new sealant. A repair leaves all of that untouched and costs far less. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

FAQs for Clayton Heights

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Will it make a mess?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

Do you charge for travel?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Clayton Heights. What changes the price is:

  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match

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.

Getting a price from pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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 it’s worth repairing early.

What a repair can’t fix

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray that moves underfoot

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

If you manage property in Clayton Heights, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

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