Shower tray repair near Coney Weston

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

How we handle shower tray repair in Coney Weston

We repair cracks, chips and scratches in stone resin, acrylic and ceramic trays, or resurface the whole tray if it’s worn. Nothing is taken out, so the screen and tiling stay as they are. If you’re dealing with scuffs and light scratches and a tray that flexes, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

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

What we are called out for in Coney Weston

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

Look out for these signs:

  • Scratches in the surface
  • Movement when you stand on it
  • Damage around the waste
  • A dull, stained or worn surface

10 questions to ask before booking

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Check the seal every few months

Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, which can damage the floor over time. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

When a repair is not the answer

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Leaks from the waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
  • Multiple cracks across the tray

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

Materials we repair

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

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Ask for a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

Landlords, agents and businesses in Coney Weston

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

How we price shower tray repair

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Coney Weston. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray

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

Your questions about shower tray repair in Coney Weston

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed price, typically with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire shower tray and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

We’d stop using it until it’s repaired, because water may be getting underneath.

Can a stained tray be refinished?

Yes. The whole tray can be resurfaced without removing it.

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

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are heavy and rigid with a gel-coat finish. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips can be filled and matched.
