Shower tray repair for Falkland homes

About our shower tray repair in Falkland

If the whole tray looks tired, we can resurface it, for a clean, uniform finish. We work on enamelled steel, cast iron and stone resin, and common reasons people get in touch are cracks running from the waste and chips or cracks by the plughole.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

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

How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Signs you need shower tray repair in Falkland

Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, every shower puts strain on it. Dropped bottles cause most chips.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Cracks running from the waste
  • Damage around the waste
  • Scuffs and light scratches

Questions to ask before booking

  • If travel is included in the price
  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What protection goes down before work starts

10 questions to ask before booking

What we cannot put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we work on in Falkland

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

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Report any creaking or movement early

Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new shower tray generally means taking out the enclosure and tiles, relaying the base and tiling again. Repairing or resurfacing the tray keeps all of that in place. Our shower tray repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Why us?

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • No need to remove anything

How we price shower tray repair

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your pictures

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Falkland: your questions answered

What happens if you find more damage?

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

Do you come to Falkland?

We do. We send a technician to Falkland for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
