Shower tray repair in Haighton Green

About our shower tray repair in Haighton Green

Most tray damage can be repaired in place, from chipped edges to cracks across the floor of the tray. The colour and finish are matched so the repair blends in. Typical jobs include scuffs and light scratches and cracks running from the waste, across ceramic, stone resin and cast iron.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. They chip and crack from impact, and we match the gloss when we repair them.

What happens on the day

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray, including clearing up.

  1. First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
  2. The damaged area, or the entire tray, is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill and strengthen any chips or cracks and sand them smooth.
  4. We match the colour, or refinish the full tray.
  5. Once cured, typically by the next day, you can use the shower.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

Common questions in Haighton Green

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Can you replace the silicone at the same time?

We can. It’s a good time to replace old sealant.

Can you fix a cracked tray?

Usually, if the tray is firmly supported. We reinforce the crack, fill it and refinish the surface.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Can you resurface a whole tray?

Yes. Resurfacing gives a worn tray an even, clean finish.

Can I keep using a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.

Common problems we fix in Haighton Green

Dull and stained trays are generally down to cleaning: limescale, harsh chemicals and abrasive pads strip the surface finish.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • A tray that creaks or moves underfoot
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it
  • Edge chips from dropped bottles
  • Snagging damage in a new bathroom

Before you book anyone

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What preparation is included

Our hiring checklist

Landlords, agents and businesses in Haighton Green

If you manage property in Haighton Green, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Lancashire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What a repair can’t fix

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

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Check the seal every few months

Keep an eye on the sealant, and replace it when it splits or goes black.

Stop using the shower if the tray is cracked. Water can get through to the floor and walls, where it causes damage you cannot see.
