Shower tray repair for Davenport homes

What your shower tray is made of matters

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Shower tray repair in Davenport, done in place

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. Common call-outs are for scratches in the surface and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot, in cast iron, stone resin and ceramic.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Davenport and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

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

Should you replace it?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

FAQs for Davenport

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Davenport?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Do I have to be there?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Check the seal every few months
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Don’t ignore a tray that flexes

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

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

The process

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
