Shower tray repair for Clewer homes

The process

We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Ensure the area is dry

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Repair or replace: which is better?

The tray is usually the last thing fitted and the first thing tiled up to, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Clewer

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Common problems we fix in Clewer

Trays fitted on timber floors can crack if the floor moves, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On solid floors, cracks typically point to an uneven base.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom
  • A tray that flexes
  • A dull, stained or worn surface

Before you book anyone

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How the colour is matched
  • Who will actually do the work

How to compare quotes

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Reseal when the silicone splits or turns black
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. A soft cloth and washing-up liquid do the job.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. They crack if the base isn’t fully supported, and chips can be filled and matched.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Clewer: your questions answered

When can I use the shower again?

Normally by the following day. We’ll tell you the exact time when we finish.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

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

Can you fix a cracked tray?

In most cases. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Are there extra charges for Clewer?

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

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

What we cannot put right

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

  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Clewer. What changes the price is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your BS28 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
