Shower tray repair in Eastwood without replacing anything

We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, or the crack will come back. We’ll explain what we find. We regularly repair stone resin, acrylic and ceramic, and common reasons people contact us are scuffs and light scratches and movement when you stand on it.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

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

Do you need shower tray repair in Eastwood?

On timber floors, movement can crack a tray, especially if the tray wasn’t bedded properly. On concrete, an uneven base is the usual cause.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Damage from a refit or building work
  • A cracked shower tray
  • A damaged area around the waste

Before booking anyone

  • How soon you can use it again
  • What prep work is covered
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

How to compare quotes

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

How to look after the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Use the extractor fan
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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.

Acrylic

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

Repairing versus replacing in Eastwood

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. Repairing it takes one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Eastwood questions

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Do I need to be at home?

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

Can landlords book you?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Eastwood. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We make sure the tray doesn’t flex and look for the cause of any crack.
  2. We clean and prepare the damaged area or the entire tray.
  3. Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. Once cured, typically by the next day, you can use the shower.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
