Materials and what they mean for the repair

Ceramic

Ceramic gives a hard, high-gloss surface. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Stone resin

Stone resin is a dense, rigid material with a smooth gel coat. Poor support underneath leads to cracks, and chips are filled and matched to the surface.

Do you need shower tray repair in Hellidon?

Most chips come from things dropped in the shower, typically along the edges or by the waste.

Common reasons people in Hellidon contact us are:

  • Scratches in the surface
  • Staining and dullness across the tray
  • Damage around the waste
  • Damage from a refit or building work

Questions to ask before you book

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How the colour is matched

Repairing versus replacing in Hellidon

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Hellidon. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Hellidon

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Your questions about shower tray repair in Hellidon

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours for a repair, longer for a full resurface.

  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 tidy up and tell you when you can shower.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. 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 pictures.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hellidon

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

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

What shower tray repair costs

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Hellidon. The price comes down to:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is
  • The material

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the whole shower tray
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Keep harsh chemicals off the tray
  • Keep the bathroom well ventilated
  • Get a moving tray checked
  • Give the tray a quick rinse after use

Store heavy bottles on a shelf, not on the tray, so they cannot be knocked over.

If the tray creaks or moves, get it checked, before it cracks or gets worse.
