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

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What affects the price in Filey

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

For landlords and businesses

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Questions from Filey

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do I have to be there?

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

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across North Yorkshire.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, tidy-up included.

  1. The surrounding area is sheeted and masked.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your YO14 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it is not: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why us?

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

See our full price list.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Avoid strong descalers and bleach
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Report any creaking or movement early

Give the repair its full curing time before showering. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Every shower forces a little water into a crack, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.

Honest limits

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

  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported

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

What we work on

Signs you need shower tray repair in Filey

Trays crack mainly because they move: if a tray wasn’t bedded on a solid, even base, it flexes each time someone stands on it. Chips usually come from dropped bottles.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A cracked shower tray
  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • Chips caused during fitting
  • Scratches in the surface

What to look for in a quote

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How to look after the finish
  • How long it needs to cure
  • How changes to the job are handled
