Shower tray repair for Godmersham homes

Shower tray repair in Godmersham, done in place

Every crack has a cause, and we find it first. A tray that moves needs its support sorting first, so the crack does not come back. Whether it’s scratches in the surface and chips caused during fitting, we can typically put it right.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

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

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Godmersham. What changes the price is:

  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Godmersham. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can price the job.

What happens on the day

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 work takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Any sealant in the way is cut out.
  3. The tray is cleaned, keyed and repaired.
  4. We refinish the surface to match the tray.
  5. We clean up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Related advice

When to call us in Godmersham

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 typically come from dropped bottles.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • A damaged area around the waste
  • A dull, stained or worn surface
  • Scratches from cleaning or grit
  • A tray that flexes

  • What prep work is covered
  • How the colour is matched
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • What aftercare is recommended

10 questions to ask before you book

Repair or replace in Godmersham?

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is normally best. If water has damaged the floor, or the tray is cracked in several places, a new tray may be better. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

When we’d advise against a repair

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

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • Water damage to the floor beneath the tray
  • Trays cracked in several places

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Repairs by material

Stone resin

Stone resin trays are rigid and slim. They need a flat, solid base, and repairs are matched to the gel coat.

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Chips can rust if they’re left, so it’s worth repairing early.
