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

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  3. We clean and key the tray, then repair the damage.
  4. The surface is refinished to match.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

  • Chips on the edges
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom

10 questions to ask before booking

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

Four Oaks: your questions answered

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you cover Four Oaks?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Four Oaks for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Four Oaks?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your ME13 postcode.

Do you redo the sealant?

Yes, if you’d like us to. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

For landlords and businesses

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.

If you manage property in Four Oaks, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Repair or replace in Four Oaks?

Replacing a tray normally involves removing the screen and tiling, relaying the base and tiling again. A repair or resurface keeps all of that in place. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray
  • Damage below the tray that needs a builder

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

What we work on

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

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Ventilate the room after showers

Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep an eye on the sealant so water can’t get underneath.

A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. Getting it repaired quickly is much cheaper than fixing a floor.
