Shower tray repair in East Coker

Shower tray repair in East Coker, done in place

In most cases, a damaged tray can be repaired where it is, from a chip by the waste to a crack across the base. We match the colour and finish so the repair blends in. Our technicians work on stone resin, acrylic and enamelled steel, and common reasons people get in touch are snagging damage in a new bathroom and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot.

Every job is backed for twelve months in East Coker and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

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

What your shower tray is made of matters

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Acrylic

Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach

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

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can cause damage underneath.

What affects the price in East Coker

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Most clients in East Coker get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

When to call us in East Coker

Dull and stained trays are normally down to cleaning: abrasive pads, strong chemicals and limescale strip the surface finish.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Chips or cracks by the plughole
  • A tray that flexes
  • Chips on the edges
  • A cracked shower tray

Comparing quotes

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Choosing a repair company

How it works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. We fill and reinforce chips and cracks, then sand them flush.
  4. The repair is colour matched, or the whole tray gets a new finish.
  5. We leave it to cure; the shower is generally usable the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

Advice

Repairing versus replacing in East Coker

Replacing a tray usually means refitting the screen, retiling and resealing. Repairing it avoids all of that, at a fraction of the cost. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why East Coker clients choose us

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One visit for most repairs

See our prices page.

East Coker: your questions answered

Do you reseal the tray as well?

Yes. Add it to your quote and we will do both on one visit.

Is a cracked shower tray safe to use?

Only if you’re sure it isn’t leaking. Check the ceiling below for damp.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

When can I use the shower again?

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

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Somerset. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.

Landlord and trade work in East Coker

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
