Shower tray repair near Greenhills

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire shower tray, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

About our shower tray repair in Greenhills

We check the tray before repairing it: if it flexes underfoot, the cause needs sorting before any repair, otherwise any crack returns. We’ll explain what we find. Our technicians work on cast iron, stone resin and ceramic, and the jobs we see most are cracks running from the waste and a tray that looks tired however much you clean it.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Greenhills and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

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

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Store bottles off the tray

Avoid abrasive pads and strong descalers. Warm water and a mild detergent is enough.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, and the damage below isn’t visible.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We protect the floor and the enclosure.
  2. Old sealant is removed if it’s in the way.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Repairing versus replacing in Greenhills

If the tray is solid and the crack hasn’t let water spread, repair is typically best. If the floor is damaged or the tray is badly cracked, replacement may make more sense. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

What you get with us

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • No extra charge for your area

Questions from Greenhills

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

What information do you need?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you charge for travel?

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

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

Only if you are sure it is not leaking. Look for damp or stains below.

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

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

What a repair can’t fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Multiple cracks across the tray
  • Plumbing leaks under the tray

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

  • Cast iron
  • Stone resin
  • Ceramic
  • Enamelled steel
