Questions from Curridge

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Do you come to Curridge?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Curridge and the rest of West Berkshire. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What does shower tray repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Frequently. A tray that moves needs its support sorting before the repair.

How long does it take to cure?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

Not until you know the crack is not letting water through. Check the ceiling below for damp.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

About our shower tray repair in Curridge

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. If you’re dealing with chips on the edges and a crack across the base, we can help, on stone resin, cast iron and acrylic alike.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

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

What we’re called out for in Curridge

A tired-looking tray is often the result of years of cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale strip the surface finish.

  • Staining and dullness across the tray

  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Chipped corners or rims

Choosing a repair company

What shower tray repair costs

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole shower tray, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Repair or replace in Curridge?

Trays sit under the screen and tiles, so replacing one disturbs a lot around it. A repair keeps everything as it is. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Curridge

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We check the tray is firmly supported and find the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. The tray is left to cure and can usually be used the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner
  • Store bottles off the tray
  • Replace failing sealant promptly

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

A tray that moves underfoot needs looking at, before it cracks or gets worse.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Chips can rust if they’re left, so early repairs help.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
