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

Repair or replace in Didmarton?

When the tray is firm and dry underneath, repair is the obvious choice. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Didmarton

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

When a repair isn’t the answer

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

  • 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.

Surfaces we repair

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

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after 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. The repair is shaped, colour-matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

How to look after the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Do not use strong acids or bleach
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Report any creaking or movement early

Rinse the tray after use, use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

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